Father of Miss Mmesoma Ejikeme, a student of Anglican Girls Secondary School (AGSS), Nnewi, in the centre of the controversy rocking the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Mr Romanus Ejikeme, has stated that his daughter and wife have been moody over the allegation of forgery.
Miss Ejikeme, who has been parading a JAMB result with a score of 362, and said to be the highest, has been dismissed by the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) as being fake.
The board said the student forged her result, adding that her original result has been withdrawn, and that she has been banned from taking the exams for three years.
The father, who hosted journalists in his house, said: “I have no doubt about this matter. I’m sure my daughter did not forge the result and we are ready to go to any length.
“I only feel bad that after what my daughter has gone through reading for the exams, that she is being denied her legitimate score.
“Since this allegation of my daughter forging her JAMB result broke out, both my wife and my daughter have been feeling very sad. My wife is unhappy about this, and my daughter too is traumatized, just like her mother.
“We want a diligent investigation into this matter,” he said.
