Mr. Chima has denied the allegations, stating that his intentions were solely to support the student in improving her academic performance. He clarified that the student’s grades accurately reflected her efforts, despite leading to an unfavorable outcome.

According to him, the student sought his assistance after an unsuccessful attempt to rectify her grades through the university’s ICT system. Despite his efforts to assist her, the result remained unchanged.
