NELFUND’s media lead, Nasir Ayantogo, stated, “Students can now access loans to pursue their academic dreams without financial constraints.”
The user-friendly portal, nelf.gov.ng, streamlines the application process for eligible students.
“We encourage all students to seize this opportunity and contribute to our nation’s growth,” Ayantogo urged.

The Act also established the Nigerian Education Loan Fund to manage loan requests, grants, disbursements, and recovery processes.
