Taking to the comment section, Airdrop global @Airdropglobal5, maintained that the girl should sue JAMB and ensured that the examination board make public apology.
He wrote:
"She should sue JAMB and demand they retract the allegation and issue a public apology. If they don't, her life is ruined before it's even started as employers and institutions can learn about you on the Internet. Imagine the results if they searched for her name."
Also in the comment section, Chijioke Chimeziri @cjchimeziri said:
"Mmesoma did not forge any results.
"Scan the QR code on the right and see her name popping out with the score on her slip.
"It's a very big shame on JAMB.
"Copied."
Aderinsola @RinsolaAbiola in her own tweet urged the family of Mmesoma to sue JAMB if her account is right. She wrote:
"If her account is correct and and she didn't forge the result, then I believe she/her folks should take legal action against JAMB."
