The Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) has unfolded plan to update its system and students’ database to identify and flush out dropouts who are still receiving stipends.
The Executive Director of Operations at NELFUND, Mr. Mustapha Iyal, revealed this during a news conference in Abuja
According to him, the update aims to ensure only eligible students continue receiving financial support.
“What we’re aiming to do right now is to update our system. And part of the update that we’re doing presently is updating the students’ database.
"This is because, without the update, you don’t know who is out of school. So, what we’re doing right now is that we’re dealing with institutions,’’ he said.
Ensuring accurate data collection
Iyal noted that the fund has extensive data from relevant institutions, and more applicants continue to emerge. He stated that the upcoming 2024-2025 application cycle would provide an opportunity to further refine its records
