UTME RESULT: A lot of 2022 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, UTME candidates have been trying to check their results especially, those who did their exams on Friday 6th and Saturday 7th of May, 2022.
When will JAMB release the UTME 2022 result? If the examination body released the results, how can I check my result without visiting any cyber café office? In this blog post, I will tell you everything you need to know about 2022 UTME.
Have the 2022 UTME Results Released?
No! As of the time of writing this blog post, the 2022 UTME results haven’t been released.
When will the 2022 UTME Results Be Released?
Some blogs are peddling unconfirmed news such as saying that the result will be out on the 10th of May 2022. But the 10th of May passed and they shifted it to May 13th, 2022… Yesterday was May 13th and nothing has been released so far.
They’ve again shifted the release date to May 16th, 2022 ?♀️
But would the 2022 UTME result be released on May 16th, 2022?
No one knows! Except for God, JAMB, and her stakeholders.
Why has JAMB Haven’t Release 2022 UTME Results?
The reason is simply that they’re still checking the 2022 UTME results and CCTVs for examination malpractice.
A piece of trending news about why JAMB hasn’t released 2022 UTME Results is because those who sat for the exam on May 6th and 7th, 2022 passed the exam beyond expectation and that’s why JAMB is trying to investigate everything thoroughly before the results will be released.
But is that true?
Well, I see no sense in that. Why would JAMB predict and expect some candidates to fail the Exam they’ve prepared for as if their life depends on it.

According to a report by TheGuardian, JAMB said they would not release the results “until it receives reports of examination malpractices” because 60% of the results came in after the exam has been concluded.
Maybe that makes sense. It may be possible for students to engage in examination malpractice and yes, let’s them check all CCTV to fish out the bad eggs.
JAMB’s registrar, Prof. Oloyede added they will not be creating any kind of confusion this year.
Imagine if 60% of the results are released and the remaining 40% of candidates are waiting on God before they see theirs, that’s going to be a premium confusion indeed.
So, bro, keep calm. The results will be released soon. Stop giving yourself heartache whenever you see these online blogs baiting you into clicking their post link by saying the result is out.
If the result is out, you don’t need these blogs’ confirmation, you can know when it is released yourself.
