Former Minister of State for Labour and Productivity, Festus
Keyamo, today joined the call for Mmesomma Ejikeme to undergo counselling.
According to Keyamo: “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.”
Describing Mmesomma Ejikeme as a brilliant girl, judging by
her original JAMB score of 249, he added: “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.”
Keyamo stressed: “Anyone still pushing other narratives over
this issue is not helping her and her family. It is time to close this very
unfortunate chapter and move on. This is my plea.”
Earlier today, the General Overseer of Goshen Freedom
Tabernacle in Effurun, Uvwie Local Government Area of Delta State, Prophet
Austin Ariole, said Mmesomma Ejikeme, the girl who allegedly forged the result
of her Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) conducted by the Joint
Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) in Anambra State, needs counselling,
prayer, and care so she does not commit suicide out of shame.
