According to a statement by JAMB spokesman Fabian Benjamin on Sunday, Ms Ejikeme tried to exploit the exam body’s system.

“It is to be noted that the candidate had sent a message to the board’s platform to request her UTME result, after which she manually inflated her scores and pasted the same on the 2022 UTME result sheet,” the statement explained.

“Unknown to her, the board had changed the design of the 2023 UTME result sheet. Her original result remains 249 as nothing can change that.”NYSC Portal

“The board is constrained to set the records straight and wishes to state unequivocally that many of the results which many of these candidates are parading are fake,” the JAMB statement stressed. “In many instances, some of these candidates had actually obtained far lower scores than they are claiming and had used some funny software packages to manipulate their results to deceive unsuspecting members of the public.”
