Has FG Banned UTME?

The viral information that UTME/JAMB has been banned has been rejected by the Federal Government. The press release from the federal ministry of education only modifies some guidelines for admissions into our various tertiary institutions.

However, the FG has denied scrapping the UTME requirement for admission into tertiary institutions, following re po...
