The young aspirant took to LinkedIn to post his score and reflect on his academic journey.
UTME Score
He disclosed that he obtained a score of 217 in the 2026 UTME administered by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB).
Course of Study
He expressed his desire to pursue Economics at the University of Ibadan while working toward securing admission into the prestigious institution.
He shared the following reflections:
It has been precisely one month since I received my JAMB UTME score of 217.
In retrospect, this outcome signifies far more than just a figure; it embodies my consistency, discipline, sacrifice, and the resolve to persevere despite challenges.
The preparation journey involved intense pressure, countless late‑night study sessions, occasional doubts, and an unwavering commitment to stay goal‑focused.
I am Ejedara Emmanuel, and this achievement marks merely the start of a larger pursuit. While I aim to gain admission to the University of Ibadan for Economics, I am also dedicated to honing practical abilities in technology and design, convinced that growth stems from continual learning, creation, and self‑improvement.
I am sincerely thankful to all who motivated, supported, and believed in me during this process; their encouragement, guidance, and faith have meant a great deal.
The road ahead continues, and I eagerly anticipate the opportunities that await.
Forward and upward.
