Mr Gaius Chibueze popularly known as Bitcoin Chief, founder of Tatcoin has insisted on sponsoring the education of Miss Ejikeme Joy Mmesoma despite her involvement in forging UTME score.

The State Online reports that Bitcoin Chief had, at the onset of JAMB’s allegation of Mmesoma falsifying her UTME result, offered her full scholarship to study in either UK, Canada or the USA.

–Bitcoin Chief to the rescue

Messoma has been in the news since the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) punctured her claim of being the highest scorer in the 2023 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).

JAMB had said she scored 249 in the examination as against the 362 which she claimed, but the candidate released a video where she stood her ground. This had triggered a huge controversy, prompting Governor Charles Soludo of Anambra to set up a committee to investigate the matter. But few days into the sitting of the eight-man panel of inquiry, Mmesoma appeared on a television programme where she backed down on her claim of scoring 362.

However, the panel set up by the Anambra State Government indicted Mmesoma and asked her to tender an apology to JAMB, following the panel reports that indicted her. This followed a foremost Nigerian vehicle manufacturer, Innoson Vehicles withdrawing the scholarship, which it had initially offered to Ms Mmesoma.

But Gaius Chibueze, popularly known as Bitcoin Chief, the founder of Tatcoin, on July 8, 2023, confirmed his intention to go ahead with the full scholarship earlier offered to Mmesoma to study overseas despite her indictment for result falsification.

He stated that his offer to take her to the US. Canada or the UK to study remains open because if politicians who falsify their certifications can be supported and honoured, the same should be extended to the little girl.

Chibueze reaffirmed his avowed commitment after after the report of the panel set up by the Anambra State Government to probe the entire brouhaha surrounding Mmesoma’s UTME-JAMB result was revealed.

The Bitcoin Chief took to his Twitter account on Saturday, and wrote; “DEAR ALL! I will still sponsor Mmesoma. Whether she agreed or not that’s not my problem. Suppose illegality was not celebrated openly like INEC swearing in a President who didn’t win the Elections, A president with a Forged Certificate and no trace of Primary to University Education, If Nigeria didn’t celebrate Elected officials who rig elections, etc. Young people won’t see a reason to forge certificates and be celebrated openly. While we address this, we must look at the entire society.

If you want us to accept, celebrate and defend a President who rigged Election with Forged Certificate, we must also not destroy Little Girl’s future with a forged certificate. I will personally call her and explain to her that JAMB numbers don’t define how far she can go in life and next time she shouldn’t bother Forging one. I and our company @voiceoftheeast will still SPONSOR her!

Whenever we are ready to clean the mess society has become, we will start with public officials many who are elected with forged certificates. They are the bad examples People like Mmesoma are copying from. She has made a mistake and she must be corrected and shown the right path for next time! Selah!” /SHARE THIS
