Mmesoma Ban From Writing JAMB For 3 Years

Post created on 12:18 pm

After the breaking news and investigation into the result of Ms Ejikeme Joy Mmesoma, the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, has suspended the student from writing its Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, UTME, for three years.

The board insisted that the result paraded by Mmesoma was forged and that JAMB had since stopped issuing Notification of Result slips after the  2021 UTME because the slips were always falsified by candidates.

In a statement released by the board on Tuesday through its Head of Public Affairs and Protocol, Fabian Benjamin, the board reassured Nigerians that its system was neither tampered with nor compromised as the candidate simply falsified a copy of a result slip of a candidate, Asimiyu Mariam Omobolanle who sat for the UTME in 2021 and scored 138

Part of it reads, “It is also instructive to note that the candidate, in her statement, has inadvertently revealed the rightful owner of the result she is parading when she pointed out that the QR code on the result slip showed the actual owner of the said result before she peddled a lie in an attempt to obfuscate the truth.

“To witness the unassailable position of the Board regarding this obvious falsehood, the general public is, therefore, urged to endeavour to scan the QR code on the result slip to see its actual owner before it was mutilated.

“Similarly, the public is also invited to ponder on the fact that out of all the candidates that sat the 2023 UTME, only Ms Ejikeme Mmesoma parades the obsolete Notification of Result.

“In the meantime, the management of the Board, after considering the weighty infraction committed by Ms. Ejikeme Joy Mmesoma, and in line with its established procedures, has withdrawn her 2023 UTME result and also barred her from sitting the Board’s examination for the next three years.”
