This event, organized by the Oyo State Government, attracted a diverse audience of students and representatives from various tertiary institutions across the state.
The sensitization drive served as a vital platform for students to engage directly with the NELFUND team, providing them the opportunity to voice their concerns and seek clarification on various aspects of the student loan program.
As students gathered, the atmosphere buzzed with anticipation and eagerness to learn more about financial support options available to them.
During the event, Mr. Sawyerr emphasized NELFUND’s dedication to fostering financial empowerment and educational support for Nigerian students.
He stated, “This initiative is part of our ongoing commitment to ensure that no student is deprived of the opportunity to pursue their educational goals due to financial constraints.”
The session not only addressed pressing questions but also reinforced the importance of accessible financial resources in enhancing educational attainment across Nigeria. With a focus on transparency and support, NELFUND aims to bridge the gap between potential and opportunity, paving the way for a brighter future for students in the region.
