JAMB WILL NOT RELENT IN ITS EFFORTS TO SANITIZE THE NATION’S PUBLIC EXAMINATION SECTOR

The report of the Commission of Inquiry set up by the Anambra State Government, an independent and unbiased body, as demanded by some Nigerians to look into the Mmesoma saga, has vindicated the Board. This has further reinforced the position of the Board that its system was not and cannot be compromised.

It is to be noted that the Board has built a reputation in terms of the conduct of credible examinations over the years and cannot afford to fail the nation at this critical juncture of its development.

Therefore, we will not despair in spite of the painful realisation that some Nigerians would do anything to cast aspersions on the good name of the Board.

However, in spite of all the posturing of its detractors, the Board remains resolute and uncompromising in its commitment to give Nigeria the best as far as credible and fair assessment is concerned.

In fact, the Board is, more than ever, determined to continue to forge ahead unmindful of the shenanigan of those who desire its fall.

For the benefit of those who are still doubting the capacity of Ms. Mmesoma to commit this egregious crime and those who are pushing the narrative that the girl is just 16 years old even against all available data that indicate her age as an adult of 19 years, Ms. Mmesoma has owned up to committing the heinous infraction, which was carefully crafted to destroy the very foundation of one of the nation’s agencies charged with the critical role of apportioning the limited educational resource of the nation based on fairness equity and integrity.

It is, therefore, highly regrettable that some Nigerians, who do not believe in the strength and resourcefulness of their nation's institutions, would latch on to any opportunity to pull the Board down to their level of perfidy.

One vital lesson that Nigerians should learn from the imbroglio, is to learn to appreciate the genuine efforts of their critical national institutions to chart the course of national rebirth. Hence, this attitude of attacking everything that makes the nation proud even by people who should know better, is disheartening. The flip side of this is to infer that some ethnic jingoists had perhaps been elevated to public office and recognition beyond their mental and emotional capacity.

The Board would continue to be guided by the principles of inclusiveness and fairness as demonstrated by its seamless and unprompted deployment of a dedicated software called the Central Admission Processing System (CAPS), which not only eliminates human interference in the admission process, but also engenders equity, fairness, transparency to all as we do not know tribe or religion.

The public is assured of our unwavering commitment to upholding sanctity of the fabric of the nation's educational system hence our resolve to always deliver credible and fair assessment remains unshaken.

We appeal to all those well-meaning Nigerians, who may wish to support and encourage healthy competition by awarding scholarships and other honours to deserving candidates not to be discouraged but should always endeavour to verify from us any claim, no matter how innocuous, put forward by candidates.

Candidates, on their part, are warned to stay away from fraudulent Apps that promise to enhance their scores as the end result would always be anguish and misery.

The Mmesoma case should serve as an eye-opener especially to those who hold the view that anything goes in Nigeria. Ours is a great agency with great potential, which requires everybody’s collective and patriotic support as no nation develops beyond the wishes and trust of its people The Board, on its part, will continue to appreciate the unalloyed support of those who even risked being attacked by the social media mob to stand on the side of truth. Your trust in us would never be taken for granted as we also appeal to our detractors to sheathe their swords and be part of the movement to build a greater Nigeria.

To those who have sent apologies after seeing the truth, we call on them to continue to believe in the capacity of the Board to deliver.
We commend Anambra State Government for its patriotic and unbiased posture all through the period of the national challenge.

Let us all put our hands together to build the Nigeria of our dreams as we congratulate Miss Umeh Kamsiyochukwu Nkechinyere as the best scorer in the 2023 UTME exercise.

Reactions

Well done JAMB.
INEC, you dey see your mate?

..just very sad

I pray she comes back from this a much better person, honesty will keep you in life if you are given to it.

All have sinned and come short of the glory of God.

Have a great drive, but also have a modest expectations just in case you fall below your set goals in life.

Morals

People who always fight dirty that only their viewpoints would be heard can forge results, and those who can forge results makes nasty trolls and bullies. They most often become psychopaths.

May this JAMB Statement On Result Of Anambra Government Enquiry Favor me and my Family

Chai..

Every small issue is always over dragged by the media.

We're tayad of Mmesoma this, Mmesoma that.

We can now move unto other issues. Case closed.

Good job JAMB,

I’m glad this is finally over

Sad case. What will now become of the woman? Jamb has withdrawn her score, will they prosecute the woman?
I am torn on this, even though the crime is serious.

She was too defensive in that video. Right there , I knew something was fishy.
How would she even think that a computerized/ internet program or process like JAMB does not have audit trial?

If there is one thing I learned from this incident, it is that majority of people on social media lack critical thinking. Only a handful are actually intelligent.

Lol...I find this really funny because...how can someone forge result that has been causing an uproar in the nation ...but was still very bold and still insisting that her result was real

Ok

Now she can be prosecuted after all said and done.

Oby collect your sub😂😂😂

All the South Easterners that supported the girl against overwhelming evidence of forgery can now bury their heads in shame

Nobi small thing

Is that not what Peter Obi is doing?

Criminal girl and her criminal parents supported by Obidient IPOB trying to scam a whole country But we are wiser and smarter than them. The girl should do 6 months in prison and JAMB should withdraw her result and ban her for a minimum of 3 years.

Jamb go use this girl cover dem previous Bleep ups, they go really enter the girl. So sad

Nice jab from JAMB. But it is highly ultra vires for JAMB to try to forgive the lady for the criminal offence that nearly caused a tribal war and their Institution

THAT GIRL SHOULD TENDER PUBLIC APOLOGY
