The Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, on Wednesday, May 14, betrayed emotion and broke into tears as he apologised for the errors in the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination.
The JAMB boss, during a news conference in Abuja, took responsibility for the errors in the just-concluded examinations.
“I apologise for the trauma caused the candidates and I take full responsibility for this,” Oloyede said.
He admitted that errors were made during the 2025 UTME after the investigations were carried out.

“So, I appeal to the candidates and those affected by the error of our system to accept this explanation as the truth of the matter without embellishment, please. I apologise and take full responsibility not just in words.
“Then, I want to say a big thank you to the Minister of Education for his unwavering belief in JAMB and what the Board stands for. I also appreciate all officers and officials who believe in us for their goodwill in the face of this challenge.
“We have vowed to uphold integrity as the abiding philosophy of JAMB, and we won’t waver or depart from it despite the fact that we are not infallible.
“I am equally grateful to all stakeholders who have lent us their support and expertise in arriving at a logical conclusion that we have arrived at. And for the inconveniences, once again, on behalf of JAMB, I say, I am sorry to all Nigerians.”
