NELFUND: Ibadan indigenes urged to explore benefits of interest-free student loans

The Central Council of Ibadan Indigenes (CCII), led by President-General Barrister Sulaimon Ajeniyi Ajewole, welcomed officials from the National Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) to its November 1st General Assembly meeting at Bode Amao Hall, Ibadan House, encouraging local students to seize opportunities offered by Nigeria’s student loan scheme.

Barrister Ajewole expressed concern about the low participation of southwestern students in the scheme, noting that few have taken advantage of the support. “Our administration recognises the need to raise awareness. It is concerning that many students in our region are yet to maximise this opportunity. I encourage parents, guardians, and significant others to ensure their children access the benefits,” he stated.
