It is not unusual of JAMB to announce the top 3 highest JAMB score immediately after the board has released its result to the public. However, the board has decided to be announcing top 10 candidates every year now.
A female candidate, Nkechinyere Umeh, an indigene of Anambra state has been named the best candidate in the 2023 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examinations (UTME) with a cumulative mark of 360. The board Registrar, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede disclosed this in Abuja on Saturday at the 2023 policy meeting for tertiary institutions. Stephen Aguele from Edo state, who scored 358 came second best; Oluwafemi Ositade from Osun state also scored 358 and came third on the list.
Note: Other candidates that did well include Master Daniyan Ayomide a student of Grundtvig International Secondary School scored 353, and Lotanna Azuokeke, a student of Bishop Otubelu Juniorate scored a total of 337 in 2023 UTME.
Is This Year JAMB Result Good
JAMB has released the official performance of all the candidates that wrote 2023 UTME. 378,639 candidates out of 1,761,338 scored 200 and above in 2023 UTME. This means 21% of the total number who sat for the Unified Examination scored 200 and above.
Therefore, our assessment from this year result looks not good enough when compared with 2021. I searched through forums where candidates do interact and I can say that the result shared is relatively not good.

The thorough scrutiny that JAMB did on the results has reduced the number of candidates who will pass the exam through malpractice. And subsequently, results from JAMB will be a true reflection of the ability and capability of each candidate that sits for the exam.
2019 UTME Highest Score
- Best score – Ekene Franklin – a 15-year-old boy from Abia State emerged the best candidate by scoring 347 marks
- Second best score – Igban Emmanuel Chidiebube – a 16-year-old boy from Abia State came second by scoring 346 marks
- Third best score – Oluwo Isaac Olamilekan – a 17 year old from Osun State trailed behind with 345
Note: JAMB will never announce the lowest score and there is no way you can get the actual candidate that have such result. The reason is that there is no pride in making announcement of candidates who has the lowest score.
I believe anyone can attain the feat the candidates above have achieved through diligence, hard work, perseverance, focus, and determination to excel.
The entire crew of servantboy says congratulations to these wonderful candidates.
