He said the board then checked on its system with Mmesoma's name and registration number, and that was how they disclosed that she scored 262.
The JAMB spokesperson then alleged that what Mmesoma had done was to edit someone else's result and started parading herself as the highest scorer of the 2023 UTME.
He noted that what Mmesoma had done could put the founder of the Innoson motors in trouble if he knew the gravity of what the girl had done.
How JAMB arrested Ejikeme Mmesoma for fabricating her results
Speaking on the investigation JAMB did on Mmesoma result and find out what she has done, Benjamin said:
Immediately the result was released, she checked her result. Instead of sending result to 55019 to view her result, she sent UTME to the code but because the phone number she is using is a unique identifier, the machine then sent her her result.
She then doctored the result the way she wanted it and sent it back to the USSD code, the code also returned her original result again. she sent it like four times and got her original result.
How to readjust JAMB, UTME results
He further disclosed that she went outside the database to obtain that slip, adding that, unfortunately, there are about 17 security codes on the result slip, one of which is the QR code she talked about.
Benjamin then summed up that for the 2023 results, JAMB did not use the design that Mmesoma held in her video, challenging Nigerians with candidates in the 2023 UTME to compare it.
The JAMB spokesperson then confirmed that her result had been withdrawn, adding that Mmesoma would be banned from participating in the exam for three years and would also be charged to court as well.
