Apart from recommending that Miss Mmesoma tenders a public apology to JAMB, the committee also recommends “psychological counselling and therapy” for the indicted candidate.
Since the matter became public knowledge last week, many Nigerians, including former Ministers of Education, and Aviation, Oby Ezekwesili and Osita Chidoka, respectively, have made statements.
But when the examination body released the list of the top 10 candidates in the examination, another indigene of Anambra State, Umeh Ikechinyere, who scored 360 as against Miss Mmesoma’s 362 claim, was presented as the highest scorer.Meanwhile, speaking on Saturday, the JAMB spokesperson, Mr Benjamin, said the verdict by the probe panel is a vindication of the examination body.
“It is so unfortunate that even people who have served in high office would also want to reduce themselves to this kind of emotional behaviour. We must learn to build this nation and not pull it down.”
