JAMB debunks fake result in circulation as highest UTME score
A purported result slip currently being circulated, claiming that a candidate scored 396 in the 2026 UTME, is entirely fake. It is surprising that such a fabrication is being shared by otherwise well-informed Nigerians.
Firstly, the Board has clearly stated that UTME results are view-only. The circulated document appears on a fabricated result template, which on its own is sufficient indication that it is not authentic.
Secondly, the Boardβs registration numbers are system-generated and do not follow the pattern β20269β as seen on the fake slip. There are several other inconsistencies that, even at a glance, expose the result as fraudulent.
The public is strongly advised to disregard this fake result and rely only on official channels for accurate information. All results at the moment are view only.
