Teenage Anambra State resident Ejikeme Mmesoma, who has been accused of forging her UTME JAMB results and has been the subject of controversy, has now admitted what she did.
She admitted to falsifying her JAMB UTME score, according to the Anambra State panel of investigation led by Governor Charles Soludo, after nearly a week of back and forth with the testing body.
Mmesoma provided a detailed account of how she falsified her UTME results in her confession to the panel of inquiry in an eight-page report that was made public by the panel.
According to Punch, the study says, in part:
“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.”
In the meantime, JAMB has commented on a specific piece of software that some individuals use to produce phony UTME results.
The testing organization claimed to have located the application’s creator already.
The developer, who is currently an undergraduate at a higher school in Nigeria, would shortly be declared detained, according to JAMB.
