Major security features to identify original JAMB/UTME result
QR Code
This is the code that anyone can scan, and it would produce the details and information of the valid owner of the results.
After scanning the QR Code on the result that Mmesoma was holding on Channels TV, it revealed another person's information.
Photo
Benjamin also disclosed that every UTME result slip always comes with photos of the candidate on the top right side.
He argued that the result Mmesoma displayed on social media did not have her photo on the top right side.
Watermark registration number
The JAMB spokesperson maintained that the registration number of every UTME candidate is watermarked on the original result slips they printed from the board's website.
Benjamin challenged everyone to visit the official site and asked their wards who wrote JAMB to check the result they are holding and compare it with that of Mmesoma's.
