The Ibadan Zonal Director of Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Mrs Olajumoke Adeleke, said provision has been made for candidates living with disabilities in writing the 2023 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
Adeleke made this known in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Friday in Ibadan, saying that various arrangements have been made for different categories of disabilities.
She said: “I believe that there is provision for them in the Federal College of Education (Special), Oyo Town.
“The number of hours for sitting for UTME is two hours, but for the physically challenged, we always give them time to write their examination. There is extra time for them.”
Adeleke said that technical glitches had been resolved almost immediately and no candidate would be left unattended to.
NAN reports that during UTME registration, special centres were created for people living with disabilities in Oyo, Ekiti and Lagos for the South-West Zone.
