Here is evidence, Sarai Hannah Ajai had passed the CMS Accountant II Official Open Competitive Exam Examination Dated on February 05, 2004

On August 28, 2023, I, Sarai Hannah Ajai, received the results of the official open competitive examination for the Accountant II position conducted by the Illinois State's Department of Central Management Services (CMS). This examination took place on February 5, 2004. Initially, I appeared for the Accountant II competitive position examination under my original birth name. The complexity of the exam, reminiscent of the CPA exam, left me uncertain about my performance in the CMS' Accountant II competitive examination.

In pursuit of clarity, I approached the CMS office where a female employee stood behind a glass window. My intention was to retrieve my grade notice for the Accountant II competitive examination. The CMS employee retrieved my grade report from the printer and proceeded to analyze my performance, referencing the official open competitive examination analysis sheet that bore my Accountant II grade.

With a contemplative look, the CMS employee indicated that I should wait momentarily. She carried my grade report to a glass-enclosed room where a male colleague was stationed at a desk. I observed their discussion from outside the glass partition. After a brief exchange, the CMS employee returned to the

window where I awaited her response.

She conveyed to me that while receiving an 'A' grade on the CMS official open competitive examination does not guarantee the Accountant II position, my actual grade for the Accountant II examination was a 'C.' This specific grade designation was apparently manipulated to serve a particular purpose. It appeared that the organization sought to counter the misconception that attaining an 'A' grade automatically entitled one to the Accountant II position. Instead, the grade of 'C' was designated strategically to address this misconception. As a result of my performance, CMS would proceed to forward my application to the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services for consideration in an interview for the Accountant II position.

For the sake of documentation, I have included the redacted files as evidence to support these events.
