Governor Charles Soludo of Anambra State has issued a fresh order on the case of Ejikeme Mmesoma, the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination candidate indicted of manipulating her result.
Daily Report Nigeria reports that Mmesoma admitted to have forged her UTME result during an investigation by a committee set up by the governor.
The committee subsequently recommended for the teenager to apologize to the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) and be subjected to counselling and psychological therapy.
Following the development, Governor Soludo has directed for Mmesoma to be handed over to the State Guidance Counselor and Professor of Clinical Psychology.
