Tinubu’s Student Loan Initiative Faces Criticism: NELFUND Explains South-East Exclusion

Tinubu’s student loan initiative is stirring controversy as the Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) reveals that over N2.9 billion has been allocated to support tuition fees for more than 27,000 students across 19 institutions. However, none of the benefiting institutions are from the South-East region. The NELFUND has addressed this gap, explaining that the exclusion stems from the lack of response from South-East institutions to requests for student verification. In this video, we hear directly from Akintunde Sawyer, the Managing Director of NELFUND, as he sheds light on the reasons behind this regional disparity. Watch now to get the full story and understand the impact of this decision on students across Nigeria.
