“I went to cybercafe to print it”- 3 strong things Mmesoma said as she confessed to fake JAMB result

Mmesoma Ejikeme’s Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) score was a hot topic for days as Nigerians were split between those who backed her and those who thought she cheated to get the score.

The same girl had previously received a scholarship from notable Nigerians like Innoson Vehicle after she allegedly won the 2023 JAMB competition with a score of at least 360.

As inconsistencies in the specifics of her result emerged, JAMB declared that the result she had been flaunting was fraudulent.

Here are the first three things she said to the panel, according to the most recent findings by an Anambra panel formed to look into the matter:

1. Ejikeme admitted to forgery: According to the Anambra report, the lady said she was guilty of the forgery accusation. Her school principal was present when she made the allegation. *
2. Nobody supported Ejikeme in the JAMB result manipulation The teenage girl revealed that she went about the doctoring of the result by herself. She said that nobody helped her.
3. How Ejikeme went to cyber cafe The girl admitted in front of the panel that after manipulating the result, she went to an internet cafe named Priscal Global Computers to print the same document out using her same Airtel number

In other news, Osita Chidoka, a former Minister of Aviation and owner of the Computer-Based Testing (CBT) centre where Mmesoma Ejikeme sat for her 2023 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) called on the candidate to explain the source of her result.

Chidoka said he would plead with the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) for leniency if Mmesoma came clean with her result source.
