JAMB has now confirmed the use of "The Lekki Headmaster" as the Use of English reading text for the 2026 UTME, which begins on 16th April, 2026. This instruction was contained in the JAMB 2026 UTME/DE registration document - step-by-step application guide released by JAMB. Since this announcement, candidates have been scrambling to get either the PDF or hard copy. Be informed that there's no need to worry about that because every registered candidate will be given the hard copy of the book at the registration centre, so remember to collect the JAMB novel, The Lekki Headmaster, as you register at the centre. The cost is already included in the ePin you purchase, so no additional payment is required. The novel is essential for those aiming to score high in the 2026 UTME.

There's no need to rush to bookstores in search of the novel. JAMB has likely secured most of the books for distribution to the nearly 2 million candidates expected for the 2026 UTME.
