Miss Ejikeme Joy Mmesoma, 16years old student from Anambra State is in for it for manipulating her JAMB result.
It would be recalled that the 16years old Mmesoma was offered a N3 million scholarship by Nnambra billionaire cum Innoson Motors boss, Innocent Chukwuma for scoring 362 in the 2023 UTME.
Be that as it may, The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) in a statement on Sunday July 2nd, 2023 by the Head of Public Affairs and Protocol, Fabian Benjamin, said;
“The attention of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board has been drawn to several publications in both print and online media celebrating certain candidates for being high scorers in the 2023 UTME.”
“The most pathetic of them all is the case of Miss Ejikeme Joy Mmesoma, who claimed to have scored 362 in the 2023 UTME and was awarded a N3m scholarship by Chief Innocent Chukwuma.”
“Mmesoma was even set to be honoured by the Anambra State Government when one of its top officials put a call through to JAMB to confirm her claim, only for the Board to reveal that Miss Ejikeme Joy Mmesoma had actually scored 249 and not the 362 she claimed.”
“She had manipulated her UTME result to deceive the public to fraudulently obtain scholarships and other recognitions.”
“The board is constrained to set the records straight and wishes to state unequivocally that many of the results that many of these candidates are parading are fake.”
“In many instances, some of these candidates had actually obtained far lower scores than they are claiming and had used some funny software packages to manipulate their results to deceive unsuspecting members of the public.”
“Miss Mmesoma will be prosecuted and her original result withdrawn.”
