Romanus Ejikeme, the father of Mmesoma, the Anambra pupil accused of forging her 2023 JAMB result, has decided not to pursue any legal action and has entrusted the matter to God.
This decision comes after the examination board withdrew Mmesoma’s result and banned her from taking the examination for the next three years.
According to the board, Mmesoma had falsely claimed a score of 362 when she had actually scored 249.
The board discovered that Mmesoma’s result had been forged by identifying inconsistencies in the design printout she presented, which did not match the approved design for the 2023 JAMB results.
Prior to the discovery, Mmesoma had been awarded a N3 million scholarship from the chairman of Innoson motors.
In his interview with Channels TV, Mr. Ejikeme insisted the result his daughter was parading was printed out from the JAMB portal. He insisted the board is working against his daughter.
‘’My daughter did not commit any offense. She is innocent because right from secondary school, she has been taking first position till now. She is very studious. She does not joke with her education. Sometimes she reads till daybreak in order to make a good result. So she cannot commit that kind of crime.”
He added that he isn’t going to seek redress rather, will hand everything to God.
‘’I am not doing anything. I will just hand everything over to God. God knows the truth.” he said
He asked Nigerians not to kill the talent of his daughter.
