NELFund disassociates from fake student loan site

The Nigerian Education Loan Fund has warned against what it described as a “fraudulent advertisement” about a ‘Federal Study Loan.’

This followed adverts on some news sites where the website, www.fedstudyloan-gov.ng is being advertised as the application portal for the highly anticipated student loan scheme of the Federal Government.

“NELFUND wishes to clarify that it has no association with this website and strongly condemns any attempt to deceive students seeking financial aid,” read a disclaimer signed on Friday by its Media and Public Relations Lead, Nasir Ayitogo.

Ayotogo said the Fund’s official channel for student loan applications, which will be open to the public in due course, is www.nelf.gov.ng.
