NELFUND relocates headquarters to Abuja permanent site

The Nigerian Education Loan Fund has announced the relocation of its headquarters to a new permanent office in Abuja.

In a statement signed on Wednesday by its Director of Strategic Communications, Oseyemi Oluwatuyi, the agency said the relocation will take effect from Friday.

The new office is located at House 12, Plot 103/104, Monrovia Street, Wuse 2, opposite Bon Hotel, in the Federal Capital Territory.

“All official correspondence, visits, and enquiries should kindly be directed to House 12, Plot 103/104, Monrovia Street, Wuse 2, Opposite Bon Hotel, Abuja, Federal Capital Territory, Nigeria,” the agency said.

The loan fund also assured Nigerians that the change of address would not affect its services.

“We wish to assure the public that this relocation will not interrupt our services in any way.

“NELFUND remains fully operational and committed to its mandate of providing affordable education loans and support to Nigerian students across the country,” the statement partly read.

“Our official communication channels remain unchanged and are as follows: Website: www.nelf.gov.ng. Verified Social Media Platforms: X (formerly Twitter): @nelfund; Instagram: @nelfund; Facebook & LinkedIn: Nigerian Education Loan Fund – NELFUND. Email: info@nelf.gov.ng,” it said.

The agency expressed gratitude to Nigerians for their support.

“We appreciate your trust and continued support as we work to expand access to higher education financing nationwide,” the statement concluded.

Established by the Federal Government in 2023 under President Bola Tinubu, NELFUND was created to provide interest-free loans to students in tertiary institutions across Nigeria.

The scheme is designed to widen access to higher education, with repayment expected to begin two years after beneficiaries complete the National Youth Service Corps programme.
