Queen was responding to another post by Emmy Cactus, who said most private university students failed JAMB UTME.

Emmy's post reads:

"I think 90% of students in private universities are people who couldn’t pass JAMB."

In her response, Queen wrote:

"I scored 379 in jamb bro. I went to Babcock. Na your papa no get money. Shikina."

However, some people did not accept that Queen scored 379 in JAMB and accused her of being economical with the truth.

Deborah Tolu-Kolawole, a journalist, fact-checked Queen and declared that there was no such score in JAMB from 2013 to 2023 but noted that Queen did not share when she wrote JAMB.

Deborah wrote:

"Not to be a joy killer and I get it’s totally irrelevant to your point. Sorry but 379. I need to know the year o cause I’ve been trying to go through the list of JAMB top scorers and I haven’t seen any 379."
