By Sadiq Aminu The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB has lifted the ban on the use of ordinary HP pencil as a writing material for its upcoming Mock-UTME and the main examination.
A statement by the Board explains that candidates can only come with one pencil to their respective examination centres for numerical analysis if they so desire while ensuring that they are not in possession of any other prohibited items.
The Board had hitherto prohibited the use of pencils and other banned materials in view of the nefarious activities that these materials are put.
