Anambra candidate Mmesoma Ejikeme has confessed to a panel of independent investigators appointed by the Anambra State Government that she forged her 2023 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) result.

According to a report presented to journalists in Abuja by Dr. Fabian Benjamin, the spokesperson for the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), the panel observed that Mmesoma did not provide any explanation for her actions.

“In Ejikeme Joy Mmesoma’s submission, she owned up in the presence of her principal, and the Education Secretary that the narration by the JAMB officials was a true and correct description of what transpired. She also admitted to have given a manipulated result by herself unaided, using the same phone Artel Number.”
