JAMB Warns Candidates Against Coming To Exam Venue With Bags And Wrong E-slips

The joint Admission and Matriculation Board has warned candidates against coming to the examination hall with personal items other than their e-slips and Biros.

According to Dr. Beatrice Okorie, head of the Lagos annex of the board, the instruction was clearly stated on the candidates' e-slips, yet many of them still came to the hall with their bags and phones and had to be sent back to go and drop those items.

Also it was discovered that many candidates came to the venue with the wrong e-slip.

These set of candidates were sent away as well to go and bring the reprinted e-slip.

“Before the examination commenced, the candidates were supposed to re-print their e-registration slips because the first one does not contain their centre and examination numbers. That was why some who did not were told to go and re-print the correct one,” she said.
