The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board has invited 94 candidates and some tertiary institutions to appear before separate virtual panels over alleged malpractices during examination registration and fake certificates.

In an announcement issued via its X handle on Tuesday, the board said the affected candidates include those accused of soliciting or paying for illicit assistance during the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination registration exercise, as well as 2025 Direct Entry applicants whose institutions have flagged their certificates as fake.

JAMB stated that the candidates are to appear before a virtual investigation panel scheduled for Wednesday, March 18, 2026, at 10 a.m.

“The registration numbers of the 94 affected candidates are available on the JAMB website under Quick Links ‘Solicitations Candidates’,” the board said.

It added that details of the access passcode for the virtual session had been sent to the affected candidates through their registered phone numbers.

The board warned that failure to attend the session would be treated as an admission of guilt.

“Failure to attend the session will be regarded as an admission of guilt,” it stated.

Similarly, JAMB said heads of institutions whose certificates were returned as fake, as well as those earlier invited, are to participate in a separate virtual meeting scheduled for Tuesday, March 17, 2026, at 10 a.m.

According to the board, the list of affected institutions has been published on its website under Quick Links “Institutions with Outstanding Response.”

Checks on the JAMB website revealed that 43 institutions, including polytechnics, universities and colleges of education, with a total of 2,638 DE results with outstanding clearance requests, were invited for the meeting.
