adsThe Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced Saturday, June 13, 2026 date for the conduct of the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) mop-up examination.

According to the board, the mop-up examination is for all candidates who presented themselves and were biometrically verified for the 2026 UTME but were unable to sit the examination for one reason or another.

Fabian Benjamin, JAMB’s spokesperson, disclosed this in a statement on Monday in Abuja.

Recall that BusinessDay reported that some centres were said to have experienced technical challenges which made it impossible for a number of candidates to sit the examination during the 2026 UTME conducted between April 23 and 29, 2026.

Besides, some results were subsequently withdrawn over examination infractions, while some candidates who presented themselves for the examination could not be verified biometrically.
