Cursory: The Innoson Automobile Company has revoked the N3 million scholarship awarded to Miss Mmesoma Ejikeme due to her involvement in manipulating her JAMB results. The decision was made after an investigation and consultation with JAMB and the state-appointed committee. The findings confirmed the manipulation of her UTME results, leading to the withdrawal of the scholarship.
In a statement issued by Mr. Cornel Osigwe, the Head of Corporate Communications at Innoson Group, it was announced that the Innoson Automobile Company has retracted the N3 million scholarship granted to Miss Mmesoma Ejikeme due to her involvement in the manipulation of her Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) results.
The company has been actively investigating the allegations surrounding Miss Mmesoma’s 2023 UTME examination results in recent days. The statement was made available to the press in Onitsha on Saturday.
“It was reported initially that Miss Joy scored exceptionally high on the exam, a feat that led to her being awarded a scholarship by our company.
“However, subsequent reports of discrepancies in her UTME score led us to seek clarification from the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) and to allow her to voice her stance, we engaged in direct dialogue with Miss Joy.
“Further to this, a committee set up by Gov. Charles Soludo, carried out a thorough independent investigation into this matter,” he said.Osigwe noted that the findings from the rigorous investigation have now confirmed that Miss Mmesoma did manipulate her UTME results.
He said that the outcome of the investigation is disappointing and goes against criteria and values of scholarship program.
In his words:
“This conclusion is deeply disappointing and stands in direct contravention of the values we hold dear at Innoson Vehicles, particularly those that underscore our scholarship program.
“In line with these principles and response to the confirmed findings, we have made the difficult decision to withdraw the scholarship awarded to Miss Mmesoma Ejikeme.
“This action is a testament to our unyielding commitment to honesty, integrity, and merit-based recognition,” he said.
He recognized that the situation was unfortunate and had understandably disappointed those who supported Miss Mmesoma.
He reassured that Innoson Vehicles was unwavering in its commitment to assist deserving students, contribute to the advancement of the education sector, and uphold the utmost ethical standards.
