Following the conclusion of the 2022 JAMB Mock-UTME held nationwide for 175,000 candidates between 8:00 am and 10:00 am on Saturday, 9th April 2022, JAMB Registrar, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, announced the immediate delisting of one Computer-Based Test (CBT) centre in Lagos State due to power failure.

JAMB delists 1 centre over faulty generators

Why Brain Point CBT Centre Was Delisted

  • Delisted Centre: Brain Point Computer-Based Test (CBT) Centre, located at Oko-Oba, Lagos State.
  • Reason for Sanction: The centre could not sustain its power generator set during the mock examination, leading to a system failure that violated JAMB's accreditation standards.
  • Full Refund & Reassignment for Candidates: Prof. Oloyede ordered that all mock candidates assigned to Brain Point CBT Centre be refunded their service charge in full, while candidates assigned to the centre for the main May 2022 UTME will be reassigned to other accredited centres.

He also urged tertiary institutions running CBT centres to upgrade their substandard facilities ahead of the main examination. Practice timed CBT mocks anytime on the Mentra JAMB CBT app on Android and iOS.
