Babatunde Fabiyi, a 69-year-old man, was one of the applicants who took the 2023 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination with the intention of enrolling in the University of Lagos’ School of Medicine, according to data obtained from the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board.
The Lagos State University, also known as LASU, was Fabiyi’s second choice after selecting UNILAG with the same goal of pursuing a medical degree, according to information obtained by our correspondent.
The exam board noted that the elderly man chose the Yaba College of Technology as his third choice for his course of study in science laboratory technology.
“The sexagenarian, who hailed from Egbado-North, Ogun State, sat the UTME at Centre 457, Nubi Private School, Okota, Lagos State,” JAMB noted in its comments. In their various submissions, the examination officials at the center claimed that Mr. Fabiyi was a model applicant because he not only arrived at the center on time but also carefully followed all instructions.
According to reports, more than 1.5 million candidates took the 2023 UTME, and the board has already announced the exam and mop-up UTME results.
