NELFUND Disburses April Upkeep Payment to Students

Abuja: The Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) has commenced the disbursement of April 2025 upkeep payments to eligible student beneficiaries across the country. Mrs. Oseyemi Oluwatuyi, Director of Strategic Communications in NELFUND, disclosed this to newsmen in Abuja.

According to News Agency of Nigeria, Oluwatuyi stated that while most payments had been successfully processed, a small number of beneficiaries might experience delays due to the recent upgrade of the Fund’s payment and application processing system. The system upgrade is designed to enhance security and support the timely disbursement of upkeep allowances in future payment cycles.

NELFUND is reportedly working closely with relevant stakeholders to resolve these issues promptly to ensure that all eligible students receive their entitlements without further delay. Oluwatuyi emphasized the commitment to transparency, operational excellence, and the timely delivery of student support in alignment with the Renewed Hope Agenda.

The organization appreciates the patience and cooperation of all stakeholders as they continue to improve service delivery for the benefit of Nigerian students.
