The Government of Anambra State has instituted a panel of inquiry into the controversy trailing the highest scorer in the 2023 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, UTME.
Education Commissioner, Prof. Ngozi Chuma-Udeh who disclosed this at a media chat, regretted that the development was very embarrassing, coming at a time when the Soludo led administration is repositioning in her avowed determination to get education right in the State.
A statement by Nnaemeka Egwuonwu, Public Relations Officer, Ministry of Education, however, said that the Anambra State Government has continued to celebrate Nkechinyere Umeh who was declared the highest by JAMB, having scored a cumulative mark of 360, while security agents are investigating the allegation of falsification of result levelled against Ejikeme Mmesoma, who had earlier been showcased in the social media as having scored the highest.
