No national and general minimum cut-off marks for placement of candidates into the nation’s tertiary institutions in Nigeria have been published yet by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB).

JAMB made this known in a tweet on its official Twitter page, describing the cut-off mark speculated in some quarters as ‘fake news’.

The tweet reads, “Attention, kindly disregard any cut-off mark paraded by fraudsters.
