The recent issues with Ejikeme Mmesoma’s Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) result, which JAMB claims she frauded, have received a lot of mixed reactions from nigerians.
Dr Fabian Benjamin, JAMB’s head of public affairs and protocol, issued a statement on Sunday stating the board’s decision. The statement disclosed that Mmesoma, who had claimed to receive a score of 362 in the 2023 UTME, actually obtained a score of 249.
Innocent Chukwuma, the Chairman of Innoson Vehicles Manufacturing Company, had recently awarded Mmesoma an N3 million scholarship based on her faked score of 362 in the UTME.

This case has gained significant attention across various social media platforms, with many expressing opinions on the situation.
However, Innocent Chukwuma, the chairman of Innoson, responded to JAMB’s actions by questioning how a young girl could have hacked into their system, implying that there might be some hidden motives behind the board’s decision.
Amid the discussions, some Nigerians criticised JAMB, alleging that the intense scrutiny on Mmesoma was due to her Igbo ethnicity.
However, a Nigerian man @Dipo condemned these claims, arguing that focusing on ethnic bias was moving away from the main issue at hand, which is the alleged fraud committed by Mmesoma.

@Harmless12345:Which kind wahala be diswan.After we did everything to remove that Anambra girl from Jamb first position, only for another Anambra girl to take up the position.
Jamb should have told us about this before allowing our propaganda.
Imagine. Remove Anambra and you have Anambra.
@menubachike:How can a gal that her parents can’t even pay for her Waec and Neco afford to pay a fintech guru to inflate her jamb score from 249 to 362? If we set aside our premordial prejudice we will be more inquisitive about this than concluding.
@chi_agozie7:That small girl? I never even get mind do that kind thing 😭\
@mnk_pope:She had 250 or so as score, why did she have to forge again. Whoever talked her into doing it, should be arrested.
