The immediate past Minister of State for labour and productivity, Festus Keyamo has urged embattled JAMB UTME candidate, Ejikeme Mmesoma to apologise to Nigerians for forging her UTME result.
Reacting to the report of the panel of inquiry constituted by Governor Charles Soludo of Anambra State to investigate the controversies surrounding the result.
Keyamo noted that she needs counselling not castigation. “The parents should encourage her to do a public apology to JAMB, to her family and to Nigerians after which she should be allowed to get her admission based on her actual scores. Anyone still pushing other narratives over this issue is not helping her and her family,” he said in a social media post.
Former Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili, has stated her satisfaction with the findings of the Anambra State Government’s Committee over…
Admitting Ejikeme’s brilliance the ex-minister in his tweet added “She’s a brilliant girl, judging by her actual score of 249. The nation should be careful not to destroy her. What she needs is counselling, correction and guidance. She obviously did not know the weight and gravity of what she was doing. As teenagers, most of us made juvenile mistakes that never came to light.”
“It is time to close this very unfortunate chapter and move on,” Keyamo urged.
