  1. Good evening sir,please my name is Monday Christian from Edo State. I lost my jamb scores (all the written scores, documents and the pin). A friend of mine were smoking and he mistakenly dropped half of the cigarette on the floor before I noticed, my room crushed into fire burnt my foam, gas, television and all my school documents. Though he was saved 🙏
    So please sir how can I work on it now?
    Have been able to process all my lost ND documents, now I’m in HND and about to process my Jamb because of NYSC preparation.
