The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has called on candidates who used fraudulent A-Level results in the 2025 Direct Entry (DE) registration process to voluntarily withdraw.

JAMB’s spokesperson, Fabian Benjamin, made the announcement in a statement on Sunday.

Benjamin said the board has expanded its investigations to include students who have already been admitted using questionable credentials.

He added that the exam body has also implemented measures to identify individuals with such credentials.

“We strongly advise candidates with questionable credentials to refrain from participating in the registration process, as the Board has implemented measures to identify individuals with such credentials, both now and in the future,” Benjamin stated.

“If you have previously used fraudulent results, we urge you to withdraw voluntarily, as the Board is expanding its investigations to include students who have already been admitted.”

Benjamin also announced that the registration period for 2025 Direct Entry (DE) Registration will not be closing on Monday, April 7, 2025, as being speculated.

He added, “Therefore, candidates who wish to register can do so at any of the Board’s designated Professional Registration Centres (PRCs) on Monday and continuing until the official closing date is revealed.

“This liberalization of the registration period allows the Board to complete ongoing investigations into candidates who have been arrested or are under scrutiny for attempting to use fraudulent A-Level results for registration.”
