Teacher displays his UTME resit result

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a biology teacher who rewrote the 2025 UTME after scoring 159 in his first exam had displayed his new result online.

In a Facebook post, the teacher displayed his UTME resit result and opined that he must have scored higher in the previous one if he could pull this number in a resit that he was notified to take within 24 hours. He took pride in his earlier public outcry, saying it had helped save the younger students who wouldn't have said anything about their low scores.

"If I could get 282 under 24 hours notice to retake JAMB, then I must have scored higher in the previous one. I was very sure I couldn't score as low as 37 in Biology and 159 aggregate. "At least my agitation has helped to save the younger students who wouldn't have said anything. "Thank you Legit.ng..." his post partly read.
