2023 Anambra JAMB candidate, Mmesoma Ejikeme has finally admitted that she forged her 2023 UTME result.
She made the confession to an independent investigators panel set up by Anambra State Government.
The spokesperson of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, said the panel noted that Mmesoma did not give any reason for the forgery.
“In Ejikeme Joy Mmesoma’s submission, she owned up in the presence of her principal, and the Education Secretary that the narration by the JAMB officials was a true and correct description of what transpired. She also admitted to have given a manipulated result by herself unaided, using the same phone Artel Number.
“According to her, she proceeded to the cybercafé (Prisca Global Computers, Uruagu, Nnewi) where she printed the results she had manipulated. The Committee tried to find out the motive behind her action, but Ejikeme Joy Mmesoma said NOTHING.
“In their own submissions, the Principal Anglican Girls’Secondary school, Uruagu Nnewi, and the Education Secretary – Diocese of Nnewi (Anglican Communion) expressed shock at what transpired where in their presence, Mmesoma admitted having manipulated her UTME results, deceiving the school, her immediate family and the State Government.”
Recall that Mmesoma was accused by JAMB on Sunday, of manually inflating her UTME result from 249 to 362.
The candidate had attracted a scholarship of N3M from Innoson Motors after she paraded herself as the 2023 UTME top scorer.
Mmesoma before confessing, insisted her result was not forged and noted that she printed her result from the website of JAMB.
JAMB slammed a three-year ban on Mmesoma for her action.
