The Nigerian Education Loan Fund issued a warning on Saturday, advising students to be cautious about applying for student loans through fraudulent websites and portals.
The Fund emphasized its commitment to ensuring that qualified students receive student loans but urged them to be wary of deceptive sites that pretend to be the official website of the organization.
This clarification was provided in a statement by Oseyemi Oluwatuyi, the Director of Corporate Communications for the Fund.
“The Nigerian Education Loan Fund would like to stress that the ONLY official portal for student loan applications is [www.nelf.gov.ng](https://www.nelf.gov.ng).
