The Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) has cleared an additional 22 state-owned tertiary institutions for student loan applications.
This is disclosed in the official X handle (formerly Twitter) of NELFUND.
The fund said the additional institutions followed a review by the committee responsible for the Student Verification System.
According to the organisation, students from the 22 state-owned tertiary institutions can now apply for loans on its portal, http://nelf.gov.ng.
It would be recalled that 86 state-owned institutions were cleared before the new list, bringing the number to a total of 108 institutions.
