2020 UTME: Get NIN, JAMB tells candidates

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has called on all prospective candidates for its 2020 UTME to acquire the National Identification Number (NIN).

JAMB’s spokesman, Fabian Benjamin said the aim was to use such biometric details, to check examination malpractice.

In a statement, Nenjamin said JAMB will no longer be responsible for the capturing of candidates’ biometrics.

Instead, all information required will be uploaded from the data captured by the NIMC.
