A boy, Edidiong Okon, got confused after checking his Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) result with a code on a mobile phone.
Unlike the messages other students received when they checked their results, Okon got an unusual response.
After an automated response informing Okon of the cost of checking his result, Okon got the reply:
"Wrong Parameter 2348153257807 Passed. Send HELP to 55019 or 66019."
Taking to Facebook, Okon lamented the reply he got.
"Please I don't understand this again," a frustrated Okon wrote.
JAMB had yet to release the UTME results at the time of this report.
