The embattled Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), candidate, Mmesoma Ejikeme, has admitted scoring 249 in the 2023 Unified Tertiary Matriculation
Amid the controversy, the board insisted she forged the result on a template it stopped using since 2021.
Admitting that the first result was wrong, Mmesoma said she should not be blamed for the mixup. “After all said and done, I now saw that I got 249. “I sent them a text message there to know what really happened — the JAMB Support System. If they go to their system, they will see it there.”“It’s not my fault that I printed my result like that, and they said that I forged my result. It’s not my fault. So, them banning it is not fair,” she said.
