Mmesoma Ejikeme Joy, the student accused of forging her Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) results has shared her own side of the story.
In a viral video seen on social media, the student held a document she claimed to be the original result printed from JAMB portal. She reiterated that she never manipulated her result as alleged by the board. According to her, she visited a cyber cafe to print her result and she was given a result slip with an aggregate score of 362.
“I’m the owner of this result. I went to jamb portal to print this result and this is what they gave me. This is the result here”, she said in the video while holding a copy. “I’m traumatized that they accused me of forging my own result cos I’m not capable of this.
“They scanned this QR code here and it showed another name, a Yoruba name, Omotola Afolabi, 138.” She further explained that the candidate linked to her QR code has another score reading 338 suggesting there’s a mixup from the JAMB portal.
Joy revealed that her school principal visited the commissioner of education in a bid to rectify the issue. “The DSS called us to their office, we gave a statement there and they said they will contact us later after investigating this result” she added.
