With due respect sir. I wish to know if jamb has officially commenced UTME registration. And also, I got admission this year in unical with a 4years course i didnt like. I made this mistake while registering for jamb. The cause of this was the man who registered me. He fed me with fallacies concerning that course and i was so naive to him.
Isaac Inegbenehi says
The date will be decided on January 24th.
