Babajide revealed how the girl sent him a WhatsApp message with a screenshot of her score and called him to remind him of his side of the agreement.

The girl scored 70 in English, 79 in physics, 58 in biology, and 74 in chemistry, bringing her aggregate to 281. This puts her in the 4.2 % of candidates who scored 250 and above.

Man cries out over relative’s UTME score

Meanwhile, Fox Nigeria previously reported that a man who promised his relative N10k if she scored 240 and above in the JAMB exam had cried out after seeing her score.

He said the girl, Andrew Khikmwa Lar, called him to inform him that she had sent him her account details and her UTME score, urging him to do the needful.

Khikmwa told him he could keep the extra score she got. From the screenshot Sunenna shared on Facebook, the girl got an aggregate of 251.
