In a Facebook post, Praise criticised JAMB for failing to add just one mark to his score to make it a round number.

Praise expressed sadness over failing to meet his UTME target. He shared an SMS screenshot containing his UTME score.

The lad scored 199: 55 in English, 61 in government, 45 in Literature and 38 in Christian Religious Studies (CRS).

Praise’s Facebook post read:

“I’ve seen mine guys but God this is not what I want God . Jamb Waka ️ why you should just make it 200 nah that 1 point pain me like mad ooo .”

JAMB said only 0.5% of the candidates scored 300 and above in the 2024 UTME.

Boy heartbroken after checking his UTME result
