AMILOADED MEDIA HUB NEWS UPDATE
Mmesoma Ejikeme, the Anambra student who was accused of manually inflating her 2023 UTME result by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board on Wednesday confirmed that she received an automated text message from JAMB indicating that her score was 249.
Mmesoma made this known during an interview with Sunrise Daily on Channels Television which was monitored by newsmen.
JAMB’s spokesman, Fabian Benjamin, had earlier revealed that the candidate sent a series of messages to the board’s automated telecoms system, including the results showing an aggregate of 362.
Responding, Mmesoma said the only SMS she sent to JAMB was through its support system: “That’s the only SMS I sent there.”
Asked if she got any feedback, she said, “They didn’t reply. If they check their JAMB Support System, they would see that I sent a text message. They didn’t reply.”
On the claim that she used an Airtel line, Mmesoma replied: “Yes,” but she added it was “not through USSD code”.
“The one I checked through the USSD code is the one of 360 that I saw,” she explained further.
Responding to the claim that the feedback from JAMB showed her score as 249, she agreed.
“Yes,” she said. “After all was 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.”
According to report, the embattled 19-year-old Anambra student has been in the news following allegations of UTME score forgery.
JAMN/UTME should stop putting this young girl to pressure.
If they are not satisfied with her performance, let them give her a fresh exam to write in their office , period.
We should encourage female students rather than discounting them
I think if she is free the North, JAMB or UTME wouldn’t have made this unprofessional claim
It is well !!!
