According to Miss Mmesoma Ejikeme, the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, or JAMB, texted her with her score, which she said was 249.
This was stated by Ejikeme on Wednesday while appearing on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily. Ejikeme is a contender for the JAMB UTME 2023. She asserted, however, that the error should not be placed at her feet.
Remember how the 19-year-old bragged about having the best JAMB score after her UTME result slip indicated 362?
But JAMB had criticized the outcome, emphasizing that she had falsified it. In Nigeria, the charges and denials made by Mmesoma and JAMB sparked intense debate.
The board stated she falsified the outcome using a template it ceased using in 2021 amid the scandal.
Mmesoma acknowledged the error in the initial outcome but insisted she shouldn’t take the blame. “When all was said and done, I discovered that I received 249.
“I sent them a text message there, the JAMB Support System, to let them know what actually transpired. They will be able to see it in their system if they log in.
She also criticized the three-year suspension imposed by JAMB, emphasizing that it was not her fault. They claimed that I falsified my results, although it’s not my fault that I printed them that way. I’m not to blame. Therefore, they should not have banned it, she claimed.
