Governor Chukwuma Soludo of Anambra State has directed that Mmesoma Joy Ejikeme, the female pupil who falsified her Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination result be handed over to the State Guidance Counselor and Professor of Clinical Psychology.
Soludo gave this directive in a letter to the Principal of Anglican Girls Secondary School Nnewi where Mmesoma is a student.
The governor further directed immediate commencement of psychological counseling and therapy sessions for Mmesoma, who on Thursday admitted that she manipulated the fake result she had been parading.
In the letter signed by the Commissioner for Education, Ngozi Chuma-Udeh, the governor said the directive followed one of the recommendations of the panel constituted to investigate the matter.
“The directive is in line with one of the recommendations of the Committee set up by Anambra State Government to investigate the matter, following the parading of the fake results which elicited interests and generated controversy and misgivings in the general public,” the statement added.
