Mmesoma Ejikeme, who was accused by the Joint Admission and
Matriculation Board (JAMB) of forging her result has denied the allegation.
Ejikeme spoke in a video, expressing surprises that a result
she reportedly printed out from the JAMB portal could be termed by the
examination board as fake.
The candidate, who said she was traumatised by the claim
made by JAMB, described herself as a brilliant student, saying she is not
capable of doing what JAMB accused her of doing.
In the video, Ejikeme said: “I am the owner of this result.
I went to JAMB portal to print this result and this is what they gave me. This
is the result here. This is my aggregate, 362. This is exactly how I downloaded
it from that site. So, they (JAMB) now saying I forged my result is what I
don’t know; and I’m traumatised that they accused me of forging my own result.
“I am not capable of forging results. This is the evidence.
The QR code on the result was scanned and it showed another name, a Yoruba
name, Omotola Afolabi, 138. That same person that got 138, they checked again
and the person scored 238; meaning that there is problem somewhere.”
Ejikeme explained that she was at the office of the Anambra
Commissioner of Education on Friday with her secondary school principal and the
education Secretary.
“We showed this result to the Commissioner of Education,
both this one and the SMS they sent to me. So, she snapped it and sent to the
JAMB officials. They called back, saying that this was a forged result, that I
forged it myself, that the JAMB office doesn’t have a record of this.
“They called the DSS over to come to her office. The DSS
took us to their office and we made our statement there. The DSS said they
would contact us later, that they are going to investigate this result to know
where it came from.
“Instead of them (JAMB) to wait for the investigation to be
over, they posted that I forged without confirming. I’m really really sad about
it,” she stated.
She added that being a brilliant student from her primary
school days, she could not have forged the JAMB result just to impress anybody.
