“I am Chief Johnmary Akachukwu Maduakolam, a legal practitioner and the President of Johnmary Akachukwu Maduakolam Initiative for Education, which is a pet project with a special interest in education and holistic development of the young person.

“I am shocked to read from the media a circular issued by one Mr Fabian Benjamin on behalf of JAMB, accusing one Ms. Mmesoma Ejikeme, a minor and a student of Anglican Girls Secondary School Nnewi, Anambra State of faking JAMB scores to curry favour from unsuspecting philanthropists. By that publication, JAMB, under your watch, defamed the poor girl, exposed her to public opprobrium, and most especially failed to discharge its duty to the girl child under the Child’s Right Act.”
JAMB asked to apologise to Mmesoma
As reported by PM Newsthe lawyer demanded that all publications maligning the identity of Mmesoma be retracted by the examination board and also tender an unreserved apology.
The letter reads:
“…I hereby request your good self, on her behalf, to retract forthwith the malicious publication made against the child, tender an unreserved apology to her and take steps to ensure that the trauma your conduct caused is cushioned immediately.
“Kindly note if you fail, neglect or refuse to harken to my demands for the welfare of the child, I shall drag you to a court, and you shall bear its cost.”
JAMB bans Anambra pupil Mmesoma Ejikeme for 3 years, withdraws UTME result
Meanwhile, Ejikeme Joy Mmesoma has been barred from participating in the UTME for the next three years.
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, in a statement on Tuesday, July 4, also withdrew the 2023 UTME result of Mmesoma.
The spokesman of JAMBFabian Benjamin, insists that the UTME result being paraded by Mmesoma is “patently fake.”
