JAMB has announced the extension of the 2023 UTME registration deadline. This is contained in a statement made available by the Head of Public Affairs and Protocol of the board, Fabian Benjamin. According to him, the sales of ePINs would now end on Monday, 20 February, while the UTME registration would end on Wednesday, 22 February.
