The Oyo State Police Command announced that it will deploy comprehensive security arrangements throughout Oyo State for the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) organised by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB). The announcement was released in a press statement on Thursday and bears the signature of Police Public Relations Officer DSP Ayanlade. The statement indicated that the security deployment is intended to safeguard the examination process across the state.
Students sitting the 2026 UTME in Oyo should anticipate a visible security presence, which aims to minimise any potential disturbances on exam day. Such measures are part of broader efforts to protect the credibility of JAMB examinations, a concern that has affected several states in previous years. Candidates are advised to arrive early, cooperate fully with security personnel, and keep personal belongings secure to avoid any complications.
