“I feel a debt of pain for letting you down,” she said.
“I had already admitted that what I did was wrong. Based on that, I hereby presented to you all, my letter of apology.
“I humbly seek your forgiveness for the mistakes I have made and the pain I have caused.
“I deeply and sincerely agree that I ignorantly got my JAMB result from another portal which was not a JAMB portal.
“I apologise for all the apportioned blame and all the pain I have caused.”
She said ignorant played a “significant role” in the process of obtaining the fake result.
