JAMB bars Mmesoma from taking UTME for next three years

The controversies trailing the result of Miss Joy Mmesoma in the recent Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) is far from abating as the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has barred the candidate from sitting the examination for the next three years.

“The Board is not averse to public scrutiny and is ready for open public session involving the agencies listed above as well as relevant security agencies where the candidate, parent’s guardian and her legal team will be present.

“Another frightening dimension to the unfolding drama is the unwholesome interest of some nefarious elements, who to all intents and purposes, are determined to goad the candidate on this unproductive path as any casual observer would observe with the obviously stage-managed video aired by Ms. Ejikeme. The Board urges these confusionists to have to rethink as their evil machinations would soon come to light.

“Again, the Board restates its readiness for genuine scrutiny as this case would not be the first time and might not even be the last of such shenanigans. At the end of the day, the truth would manifest and the Board vindicated.

“In the meantime, the management of the Board urges member of the public to examine critically the issue at hand and avoid fake news trafficking,” Dr Fabian stated.
