May 1, 2024 | Uncategorized


  • A young boy has cried out on social media over the unusual text message response he got when he checked his UTME result
  • The confused lad expressed worry, saying he doesn’t seem to understand why he got such a message
  • Some netizens advised him on the right thing to do to fix the situation, while one suggested he went to Abuja

A boy, Edidiong Okon, got confused after checking his Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) result with a code on a mobile phone.

Unlike the messages other students received when they checked their results, Okon got an unusual response.

Another JAMB result checker released

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported another way one can check his or her UTM results.

Another option for checking the 2024 UTME results is for candidates to send an SMS with the phone number they used to register. They will then see their results via SMS.

Your UTME 2024 results can be checked by sending UTMERESULT to 55019 or 66019 on the phone number you used to register for the examination during the registration process. After sending the UTMERESULT to the short codes provided above, you will get your results via SMS.
