In the committee report, the panel wrote that “Ejikeme Joy Mmesoma admitted that she manipulated the fake results herself, using her phone.”
The committee also recommended that the schoolgirl tenders apology to the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB).
A report on the Anambra-constituted panel’s investigation has now concluded that Mmesoma indeed faked the results.
Recall that after a prolonged stand off between JAMB and Mmesoma over the authenticity of her result, Governor of Anambra State, Chukwuma Charles Soludo, set up a panel of eight including seven professors to investigate the affair.
The panel of inquiry, in it’s report, said Mmesoma is expected to tender a written apology to JAMB, the Anglican Girls Secondary, and the Anambra state government.
Part of the panel report reads.
“The results paraded by Ejikeme Joy Mmesoma with an aggregate score of 362 are fake as buttressed by significant variations in the registration number, date of birth, centre name, and other infractions,” the panel’s report reads.
“Ejikeme Joy Mmesoma admitted that she manipulated the fake results herself, using her phone.
“The Principal Anglican Girls’ Secondary School, Mrs. Edu Uche, and the education secretary, Diocese of Nnewi (Anglican Communion) expressed dismay at the conduct of Ejikeme Joy Mmesoma.
“Ejikeme Joy Mmesoma should undergo psychological counseling and therapy.
“We hope that this unearthing of the truth as we have discovered will go a long way in correcting the sentiments, misconceptions, and deceptions that have been in the public domain.”
