The Joint Admissions and Matriculations Board (JAMB) and the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) have agreed to allow the use of e-Naira for payment of the 2023 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) fees.
This decision was made to eliminate extortion of candidates, block any financial leakages in JAMB’s transactions and reduce the cost of cash transactions.
