Ezekwesili speaks
4 July 2023
A former Minister of Education, Obi Ezekwesili, has called for a comprehensive investigation into the controversy of the candidate from Anambra State whom the board accused of manually inflating her UTME score, Nmesoma Ejikeme
In a post on her verified Twitter handle, Ms Ezekwesili called for an independent tech investigation to look into the facts of the matter.
“This saga between Mmesoma Ejikeme and @JAMBHQ requires an Independent Tech investigation to unearth all facts,” she wrote. “Listening to her in this video, it is reasonable to request a forensic investigation to help reveal what really happened. I have reached out to the Registrar of JAMB. An independent investigation would turn this curious episode into a Learning Opportunity for @JAMBHQ and everyone, especially students. I frankly see no downsides in asking a team of Independent Technology folks to investigate and publicly share their findings
