Former Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili, has expressed her support for the supposed sanction imposed by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) on Mmesoma, a 19-year-old girl involved in a controversial JAMB result. This comes as a surprising turn of events, as Ezekwesili had initially defended Mmesoma based on ethnicity. CONTINUE READING
When the controversy surrounding Mmesoma’s JAMB result emerged, Oby Ezekwesili, Charly Boy, and some gullible Nigerians majorly “Igbos” had initially taken a stance in support of the 19-year-old girl, potentially influenced by considerations of ethnicity. However, in a recent statement, Ezekwesili revised her position and expressed her agreement with JAMB’s decision to sanction Mmesoma.
Ezekwesili now asserts her support for the actions taken by JAMB, aligning herself with the board’s decision to impose sanctions on Mmesoma for her involvement in forging the result. This shift in position underscores Ezekwesili’s commitment to principles of meritocracy and fairness in educational assessments, transcending any potential ethnic biases. CONTINUE READING
She also tasked her loved ones to counsel her and tasked the admission body to bring the syndicates who pushed her to this disgrace to book.
She wrote; “I have just read the report of the Committee set up by Anambra State Government to investigate and report their independent findings on the Mmesoma and JAMB Saga. I am satisfied with the process and findings of their investigation which gave Mmesoma fair hearing to enable the Committee gather all facts.”
“It was necessary to have independent evidence that the result Mmesoma laid claim to publicly was not only fake but that the forgery was personally orchestrated by her. There are usually syndicates at the center of perpetration of exam malpractices in Nigeria but it appears not to be so in Mmesoma’s case from the facts of the Committee’s report.”
“Mmesoma’s action has consequences. I therefore support the sanctions imposed by JAMB as a deterrent to all who participate in the systemic exam malpractices within our educational system. I also recommend sustained counseling for Mmesoma by the family, school and church to support her as she reflects on this tragic episode and makes a decision to embrace values and rewards of effort while eschewing dishonest gain for the rest of her life.”
“I do hope that the lessons of this case will help all our pupils, students, parents, guardians and the public at large renew a collective commitment to uphold Exam Integrity in Nigeria as a cornerstone of Nigeria’s Values and Reward System for our children and youth. I wish to thank JAMB for their good work and encourage the Registrar and his team to continue with their critical service to our country and people as we all join them to sustain raising of awareness on Exam Integrity.”
