Nigerian businessman and crypto investor, Gaius Chibueze, popularly known as BitcoinChief, has reiterated his commitment to sponsor the Anambra State Student, Mmesoma Ejikeme, indicted of forging her University Tertiary Maltriculation Examination (UTME) results.
OsunDailyNG reports that Chibueze made this known in a post via his Twitter page, stating that his offer of a scholarship to an American, UK or Canadian university still stands.
According to him, the supposed illegality of Mmesoma was not treated like the case of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) swearing in President Bola Tinubu, who didnโt win an election.
The BitcoinChief further stated that he would educate Mmesoma on her wrongs and also assures her that oneโs JAMB score does not define their future or how one would turn out in life.
The Nigerian millionaire added that there are many bad examples in the country that the teenager copied from, and those people need to be dealt with first.
In his words: โI will still sponsor Mmesoma. Whether she agreed or not thatโs not my problem. Suppose illegality was not celebrated openly, like INEC swearing in a President who didnโt win the Elections, A president with a Forged Certificate and no trace of Primary to University Education, If Nigeria didnโt celebrate Elected officials who rig elections, etc.
โYoung people wonโt see a reason to forge certificates and be celebrated openly. While we address this, we must look at the entire society.
โIf you want us to accept, celebrate and defend a President who rigged Election with Forged Certificate, we must also not destroy Little Girlโs future with a forged certificate.
โI will personally call her and explain to her that JAMB numbers donโt define how far she can go in life and next time she shouldnโt bother Forging one.
โThe only thing that can stop Mmesoma is God. As long as I live, she will school in America, UK or Canada. Nothing less. You can keep crying but I will sponsor her. I believe in second chance.โ
