Internal Evidence Confirms Change In Ejikeme’s Scores Was Done With Her Collaboration-JAMB Registrar

The Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, has affirmed that the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination result of  Mmesoma Ejikeme was inflated.

According to him, the inflation was done with her collaboration.

Oloyede who spoke on Tuesday, June 4, announced that they’ve concluded investigations into the alleged forgery allegedly carried out by Ejikeme.

He told newsmen that Mmesoma is not the only student that was ”caught in the act,  disclosing that there is an industry faking results and unfortunately they cannot penetrate JAMB system, adding that internal evidence shows that the change in Ejikeme’s scores was done with her collaboration.

He said;

“The truth is that JAMB has concluded the investigation on Nmesoma’s score falsification matter. She was not the only one caught, just that others have chosen not to go out.

“Presently, there is an industry faking results and unfortunately they cannot penetrate JAMB system, reasons being that (our) system is fool-proofed and we will prove it any time. It is unfortunate that parents and some of the candidates that are being fooled are not aware that they are only being fooled.

“There is internal evidence to show that the change in Ejikeme’s scores was done with her collaboration. There are certain features pertaining to her that only her knows unless she makes it available to somebody else. They couldn’t have increased her scores on her behalf.”

Also revealing what he told former Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili about the forgery incident, Oloyede added;

“We improved on our facilities this year, so Ejikeme and her collaborators are still living in the past. I spoke with Mrs Ezekwesili on the matter and I told her that it is a high-level scam and I told her that it was a careless forgery.

“This is because we are no longer using some of the things they used in changing those results since 2021. We used that pattern in 2021 and you saw what happened and many of such individuals were caught as well and they were treated accordingly,”
