According to Oby Ezekwesili, the ex-minister of Education, she expressed her contentment with the findings of the Anambra State panel of inquiry regarding the case of Mmesoma Ejikeme, the teenage girl who deceitfully altered her JAMB UTME score. The panel’s report substantiated the earlier claims made by the examination board, as Mmesoma openly admitted to tampering with her UTME score.
The report, according to Punch, reads: “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 having given a manipulated result by herself unaided, using the same phone Airtel Number. “According to her, she proceeded to the cybercafé (Prisca Global Computers, Uruagu, Nnewi) where she printed the results she had manipulated.”
