The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board on Tuesday morning said that it has barred an Anambra State candidate, Mmesoma Ejikeme for three years over alleged forgery of UTME results.
In a statement made available on Tuesday morning by the Board’s spokesman, Fabian Benjamin, JAMB insisted that only Mmesoma paraded an “obsolete” notification slip out of all the candidates that sat the 2023 UTME.
“Consequently, the Board would like to reassure Nigerians that its system was neither tampered with nor compromised as the candidate simply falsified a copy of a result slip of a candidate named “Asimiyu Mariam Omobolanle,” who sat the UTME in 2021 and scored 138.
“In the meantime, the management of the Board, after considering the weighty infraction committed by Ms. Ejikeme Joy Mmesoma, and in line with its established procedures, has withdrawn her 2023 UTME result and also barred her from sitting the Board’s examination for the next three years.”
Reacting to the JAMB’s forgery claims, Mmesoma vehemently denied the forgery claim, insisting that she printed the results from the JAMB Portal
