PRESS RELEASE ANAMBRA EDUCATION MINISTRY ENCOURAGES ELIGIBLE STUDENTS TO ACCESS NELFUND STUDENT LOAN The Anambra State Ministry of Education has encouraged eligible students from the state to take advantage of the student loan opportunity provided by the Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND). The Commissioner for Education, Dr. Ekene Ogugua, gave the advice while drawing the attention of students and parents to the NELFUND Student Loan Portal, where eligible Nigerian students can apply for financial assistance towards their education.
The Commissioner said the initiative provides an opportunity for students facing financial challenges to pursue their academic aspirations without allowing temporary financial difficulties to disrupt their education. He urged eligible students to visit the official NELFUND portal, carefully review the requirements and complete their applications with accurate information. Dr. Ogugua also advised applicants to rely only on official information from NELFUND and avoid individuals or platforms demanding payment for assistance with the loan application.
He restated the commitment of the Anambra State Ministry of Education to promoting access to quality education and supporting initiatives that create greater opportunities for students to learn, develop relevant skills and fulfil their potential. The Commissioner therefore called on students in tertiary institutions who meet the eligibility requirements to make use of the opportunity.
