3yrs ban not fair because it’s not my fault, I got JAMB text messages that I scored 249 – Mmesoma

Ejikeme Mmesoma, the student who was accused of manually inflating her 2023 UTME result, confirmed that she received an automated text message from JAMB indicating that her score was 249.

Wakadaily reports that JAMB through its spokesperson on Sunday said, Mmesoma, a student of Anglican Girls secondary school in Nnewi, Anambra State, who paraded herself as the highest scorer in the UTME examination, got 249 instead of 362 as earlier reported.

However, speaking on Wednesday in an interview on Channels Television programme, Sunrise Daily, Mmesoma said, the only SMS she sent to JAMB was through its support system, “That’s the only SMS I sent there.”

“They didn’t reply. If they check their JAMB Support System, they would see that I sent a text message. They didn’t reply. The one I checked through the USSD code is the one of 360 (sic) that I saw.

“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.”

Also speaking on Tuesday, Fabian Benjamin said the student has been banned from writing its Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, UTME, for three years over alleged forgery of her 2023 result.

The board insisted that the result being paraded by Ejikeme was forged, stating that it had stopped issuing Notification of Result slips after  the 2021 UTME for the simple reason that candidates were falsifying them.

Reacting to that, Mmesoma Ejikeme said: “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.”
