July 5, 2023 Anambra Student Mmesoma Confirms Receiving JAMB Text Message with Score of 249

Anambra Student Mmesoma Confirms Receiving JAMB Text Message with Score of 249

In the ongoing controversy surrounding her UTME result, Mmesoma Ejikeme, the Anambra student accused of manually inflating her score, has provided confirmation that she received an automated text message from the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) stating her score as 249.

During an interview with Sunrise Daily on Channels Television, Mmesoma shared this information, countering JAMB's previous claims that she had sent messages showing an aggregate score of 362 to the board's automated telecoms system. The text message she received appears to contradict those allegations. 

Responding, Mmesoma said the only SMS she sent to JAMB was through its support system: “That’s the only SMS I sent there.”

Asked if she got any feedback, she said, “They didn’t reply. If they check their JAMB Support System, they would see that I sent a text message. They didn’t reply.”

On the claim that she used an Airtel line, Mmesoma replied: “Yes,” but she added it was “not through USSD code”.

“The one I checked through the USSD code is the one of 360 that I saw,” she explained further.

Responding to the claim that the feedback from JAMB showed her score as 249, she agreed.

“Yes,” she said. “After all was said and done, I now saw that I got 249. I sent them a text message there to know what really happened — the JAMB Support System. If they go to their system, they will see it there.”

The states include Ekiti, Gombe, Bayelsa, Akwa Ibom, Edo, Anambra and Bauchi.

In Ekiti State, the NYSC asked 11 corps members posted to repeat their mandatory service year for absconding from their places of primary assignment.

Chikezie, who spoke in Ado Ekiti, the state capital, during the Passing-Out Parade of the 2021 Batch B corps members, said six of the 1,416 corps members for the batch, were rewarded for their outstanding performances in touching positively the lives of their host communities.

“Seven corps members have been found wanting and have been sanctioned with extension of service year. Eleven corps members will be remobilized for absconding,” she said.

She listed those honoured as Anuoluwa Balogun, Tom Udoudo, Dr Racheal Bob-Yellowe, Joachim Kolawole, David Onaolapo and Goodness Stephen.
