The Nigerian Education Loan Fund has advised Nigerian students against applying for student loan through fake platforms and websites.
The fund stated that as much as it remains committed to ensuring that eligible students are able to access the loan, students should be mindful of fraudulent websites disguising as the official website of the fund.
This piece of information was contained in a statement released by the Director of Corporate Communications of the fund, Oseyemi Oluwatuyi.
“The Nigerian Education Loan Fund wishes to reiterate that the ONLY official portal for student loan applications is [www.nelf.gov.ng](https://www.nelf.gov.ng).
“Students and the public are advised to disregard any other links, websites, or messages claiming to offer access to the NELFUND Student Loan Scheme. Any platform other than [www.nelf.gov.ng](https://www.nelf.gov.ng) is unauthorized and should not be trusted.
