The statement further revealed that a total of 1,290,715 candidates have been registered nationwide for the 2025 UTME and Direct Entry.
DAILY POST observed that the candidates were stranded spending two to three days without being registered due to unavailability of centres in the state.
In an interview with some of the candidates, they said they had to spend days in mosques and streets before getting registered.
They called on the JIgawa State Government to consider establishment of centres to relieve the suffering of students as 12 centres would not meet the needs.
