The total number of released results now stands at 1,842,897 as stated by JAMB officials.
Per the provided communication, “As assured earlier, the Board is currently scrutinizing over 64,000 held results. Alongside, 531 additional results have been disclosed, leading to a total of 1,842,897 outcomes being made public.
