Why JAMB Is After My Daughter – Mmesoma’s Father Breaks Silence
The controversy surrounding Mmesoma, who is currently in the news for alleged forgery of her Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) result, has prompted a response from her father, Mr. Romanus Ejikeme.
Following the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board’s (JAMB) allegation that Mmesoma, the Anambra schoolgirl, forged her UTME result, a viral video on Monday showed her denying the accusations.
However, JAMB responded with a statement on Tuesday, asserting that Mmesoma would be banned from taking the exam for the next three years as they maintain their position that she falsified her score of 362.
In a conversation with Leadership, Romanus expressed his belief that his daughter, Mmesoma, is innocent of the UTME score inflation accusations made by JAMB.
He further claimed that the motive behind these allegations was to obstruct the N3 million scholarship that had been awarded to Mmesoma by the Innoson company.
He said, “Mmesoma cannot manipulate her UTME score. I don’t believe what they are saying. They just want to transfer that scholarship to another person. That is why they are saying that Mmesoma did not make that score.
“It is even her (Mmesoma) friends that saw her score on the internet and started calling her before she went and printed it out. We have the print-out with us now.
