š± JAMB EASES RESTRICTION ON SIM & EMAIL CHANGES
JAMB has reviewed its policy on changing candidates' registered phone numbers and email addresses.
The new process is for candidates who have genuinely lost access to the SIM/phone number or email address linked to their JAMB profile.
The service commenced on September 21, 2026 and is available only through designated JAMB CBT centres, including Professional Test Centres (PTC), Professional Registration Centres (PRC) and applicable State Offices.
Candidates can request:
- š± GSM/phone number change
- š§ Email address change
- š±š§ GSM and email change
However, the process is strictly controlled.
Candidates are required to provide a new phone number and/or email address, as applicable, together with a duly executed court affidavit that has been scanned and is ready for upload.
Biometric verification is also required.
š Important Security Information
JAMB stated that the service can be accessed only once by each candidate.
Candidates should therefore use the service only where genuinely necessary and should avoid unauthorised agents or individuals claiming to have unofficial access to JAMB's systems.

š” NECO 2026 SSCE RESULT UPDATE
Candidates waiting for the 2026 NECO SSCE results continue to monitor the examination body's official channels for an announcement.
There have been reports concerning the delay and the status of the results, but NECO has not officially confirmed the release of the 2026 SSCE results as of this briefing.
CampusAI therefore advises candidates not to treat social media claims or unofficial reports as confirmation that the results have been released.
The official NECO website currently provides examination and result-related services, but its current homepage does not show an official announcement confirming the release of the 2026 SSCE results. īØ4īØ
ā ļø For Candidates
Do not pay anyone claiming to have special access to the NECO results before an official release announcement.
Wait for confirmation from NECO's official channels.
