The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has suspended Damdav CBT Centre, located along the Olorunsogo area in Ilorin, Kwara State, for violating the Board's operational guidelines.
Why Damdav CBT Centre Was Suspended
JAMB Registrar, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, announced the suspension during an unscheduled inspection tour of seven registration centres across the Ilorin metropolis on Monday, 30th January 2023.
During the visit, Prof. Oloyede discovered that instead of installing sufficient Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) cameras to cover the entire facility as mandated by JAMB, the centre owner had installed only a single camera. The centre has been barred from registering candidates or conducting UTME exams until all required security equipment is properly installed.
Registration Update and Deadline Warning
Prof. Oloyede disclosed that as of Sunday, 29th January 2023, a total of 445,081 candidates had registered for the 2023 UTME, with about 1.8 million candidates expected before the 14th February 2023 deadline. He urged candidates not to wait until the last minute, stressing that there is no room for an extension.
