Users of the social media app, X, have reacted to the inflow of candidates’ results from the concluded 2024 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination.
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, in its statement, disclosed that 1,402,490 candidates out of 1,842,464 failed to score 200 out of 400 marks.
However, Nigerians have continued to display the results of some UTME candidates nationwide who had scored 300 and above.
One such is the daughter of a lecturer at the Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria in Kaduna State; Toro Shehu, who scored 348 out of a total 400.
Shehu, who intends to study Medicine, scored 95 in Physics and Chemistry, as well as 78 in English Language and 80 in Biology.
Her results were disclosed on Thursday by her father’s friend identified as Aliyu Tilde, who tweets as @Dr_AliyuTilde on X.com.
Tilde wrote, “Highest JAMB score? When the father, a brother and lecturer at ABU, sent me the score yesterday, I didn’t even realise she had the highest. I congratulated him and prayed for her.
“Only to realise now that she may have the highest score. Mashaallah. May she succeed in reading Medicine as her father did. The girls are making us proud.”
However, some users on X, having seen Shehu’s results, also joined the frenzy, sharing screenshots of the UTME results of people known to them.
One Salisu Gimba $BEYOND, who tweets as @kawunkankanaty, shared the results of one Oladigbolu Asake who had an aggregate score of 362.
In the screenshot, Asake scored 95 in Mathematics and Physics, 91 in Chemistry and 81 in English Language.
Another user on X.com, Arc Aloha, tweeting as @asbakari92, posted a screenshot with the caption, “347 for this boy.”
The said boy, as seen in the post, identified as Aliyu Abdullahi, had 347 with 95 per cent in Mathematics and Physics, while the remaining two subjects were not captured in the screenshot.
A tweep with the name G..C..E, tweeting as @Novoa_Vill, shared the results of one Anyachukwu Oluchukwu who scored an aggregate of 362.
