Ejikeme Mmesoma, a student of Anglican Girls Secondary School, Nnewi, Anambra State, who was accused of forging Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) result, has spoken up.
Fabian Benjamin, JAMB spokesperson, alleged in a statement issued on Sunday that the student, who was celebrated for her 362 score, said to be the highest for 2023 UTME only scored 249 in the exam.
But speaking on Monday, the student said she printed her result from JAMB portal, adding that she was not capable of forging her result.

Mmesoma said she was invited to the police station where her statement was taken, and she was told that investigation was ongoing.
She said she felt traumatised by the incident, insisting that, “there must be problem somewhere”.
