According to the Board, the examinations, which were held on Saturday, July 13, were designed for foreign candidates seeking admission into Nigerian tertiary institutions.

It listed the cities where the examinations were held to include, London, United Kingdom; Jeddah, Saudi Arabia; Buea, Cameroon; Accra, Ghana; Cotonou, Benin Republic; Johannesburg, South Africa; Abidjan, Cote D’Ivoire, and Banjul, The Gambia.

JAMB, in its weekly Bulletin obtained in Abuja, noted that by conducting the UTME in the foreign locations, the Board aimed to showcase Nigerian tertiary institutions to a global audience, placing them at par with their international counterparts.

“This initiative has successfully attracted international students to Nigerian universities. Furthermore, JAMB has incorporated the number of foreign students admitted by an institution as a criterion for the NATAP M-Award, recognizing institutions that excel in international student recruitment,” it stated.
