UTME 2026: JAMB Confirms Release of Second Batch Results Today
JAMB announces release of second batch UTME results as over two million candidates sit for the 2026 exam nationwide.
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) says it will release the second batch of results for the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) before midnight on Saturday.
JAMB’s Public Communication Adviser, Fabian Benjamin, made this known in a post on his official X handle, assuring candidates who wrote the exam on Friday, April 17, that their results would be published later in the day.
“The results of the UTME conducted on Friday, 17 April 2026, will be released before midnight today,” he said.
Benjamin noted that a formal statement would be issued once the results are released, with additional updates to be shared online.
The announcement follows the earlier release of results for candidates who sat the examination on Thursday, when 632,788 candidates accessed their scores.
The ongoing 2026 UTME, which began nationwide on Thursday, is expected to involve more than two million candidates sitting for the exam across accredited CBT centres.
