Mmesoma made this known during an interview with Sunrise Daily on Channels Television.

Mmesoma Ejikeme on Wednesday confirmed that she received an automated text message from JAMB indicating that her score was 249.

She also stated that when she checked through the USSD code, she saw 360.

The Anambra student accused of manually inflating her 2023 UTME result by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board spoke during an interview with Sunrise Daily on Channels Television.

JAMB’s spokesman, Fabian Benjamin, had earlier revealed that the candidate sent a series of messages to the board’s automated telecoms system, including the results showing an aggregate of 362.

Responding, Mmesoma said the only SMS she sent to JAMB was through its support system: “That’s the only SMS I sent there.”

Asked if she got any feedback, she said, “They didn’t reply. If they check their JAMB Support System, they would see that I sent a text message. They didn’t reply.”

On the claim that she used an Airtel line, Mmesoma replied: “Yes,” but she added it was “not through USSD code”.

“The one I checked through the USSD code is the one of 360 that I saw,” she explained further.

Responding to the claim that the feedback from JAMB showed her score as 249, she agreed.

“Yes,” she said. “After all was said and done, I now saw that I got 249. I sent them a text message there to know what really happened — the JAMB Support System. If they go to their system, they will see it there.”
