The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board has suspended the use of the USSD code in checking results of the 2021 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination.
The development was due to some challenges being witnessed by candidates.
The board urged candidates to visit its website to check their results.
The board in a statement released on Saturday by its Head of Media and Protocol, Dr Fabian Benjamin, said given that the result checking on USSD code 55019 is saddled with some challenges, candidates are henceforth “to visit JAMB portal to check for their 2021 UTME result. “
The terse statement read: “It has come to the attention of the Board that the result checking on USSD code 55019 is saddled with some challenges.
“Consequently, the Board hereby directs all candidates to visit the JAMB portal to check for their 2021 UTME result. Each candidate is to follow these simple steps.
