The management of Innoson Automobile Motors, says the N3 million scholarship awarded to Miss Mmesoma Ejikeme will stand if found to be innocent of UTME result manipulation.
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) had accused Ejikeme of using software to manipulate her score to 362 as against 249.
According to Osigwe, it is strange to hear from JAMB that Ejikeme manipulated her result.
“It is strange to us because we did our independent verification and found out that Mmesoma Ejikeme actually scored 362.
“We also waited to see if there was going to be a counterclaim. But since there was no counterclaim, we awarded her the scholarship.
He advised Ejikeme not to panic during this period of investigation, saying “we have the capacity to carry out a proper investigation to unravel the truth”.
