JAMB USSD code fails, candidates to check results via portal

Candidates who sat for the 2021 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examinations (UTME) conducted by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) may have difficulty checking their results using the USSD code 55019 as it currently has some challenges.

JAMB, which has suspended the use of the USSD code, asked the candidates to check their results through its portal.

Head, Protocol and Public Affairs of the board, Dr Fabian Benjamin, stated this in a statement made available to newsmen in Abuja on Saturday.

JAMB had on June 25 directed candidates to check their results by sending UTMERESULT to 55019 through the GSM number used to obtain profile code.

Benjamin, however, said that USSD method had been suspended because of the challenges.

He stated, “Candidates can check their results from anywhere there is internet access, checking by USSD code 55019 is suspended.

“It has come to the attention of the Board that the result checking on USSD code 55019 is saddled with some challenges.

“Consequently, the Board hereby directs all candidates to visit JAMB portal to check for their 2021 UTME result.

“Each candidate is to follow this simple steps: Visit https://www.jamb.gov.ng, on the menu bar, click on efacility, on the page that shows up, click on UTME 2021 Main Results Notification Slip.”

He asked the candidates to enter their registration number and click the button ‘Check My Result’.
