The Nigerian Education Loan Fund has debunked any form of discrimination in the disbursement of student loans to students from institutions across the country.
NELFUND noted that it made payments only to institutions that were eligible after they had responded to a verification list sent earlier.
This is coming after an X user, Santiago Leo, tweeting as #Donaldsplendo, observed that none of the institutions from the country’s South- East region was listed as part of the 19 beneficiaries, as disclosed by NELFUND on Friday.
According to the Federal Government’s body which is saddled with the responsibility of handling all loan requests, grants, disbursement and recovery, a total of N2,946,927,155 of student loans was disbursed to 27,667 students from 19 institutions nationwide.
