Anambra gov’t refers Mmesoma to psychotherapist for counseling
The Anambra State Government has handed over the 19-year-old candidate in the 2023 UTME, Ejikeme Mmesoma who falsified her result, to a psychotherapist for 3 months of guidance & counselling coaching.
The state Commissioner for Education, Prof Ngozi Theresa Chuma-Udeh, revealed this during a media chat with journalists in Awka on July 19th, 2023.
Recall that Mmesoma had claimed a score of 362 as opposed to her official score of 249, according to JAMB. In one viral video, she brandished the result which she said had been downloaded from the official JAMB portal.

The Board however presented evidence indicating that Mmesoma had requested her result via its automated SMS-based service, which repeatedly responded to her requests with the 249 score.
Following an interface with a committee set up by the Anambra State government to investigate the incident, she confessed that she single-handedly carried out the manip¥lation of her result.
