@The_Akachukwu reacted: “I have a personal experience with this, I received two text messages telling me my results, the first gave me 285, my teachers and friends saw it, we were all celebrating, then another came and what I saw shocked my being. The joy left me.” @sapalona_ commented: “She doesn’t have to do it herself na. They expelled 125 people in 2019 or thereabout for inflating post utme scores in Unilag. You people should rest. I’m sure more people did it all over the country. Hers is just talked about because she was said to be the highest.”
