The management of the Oyo State College of Nursing Sciences, Eleyele, has confirmed that 75 students of the institution benefitted from the Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND).
The College’s Provost, Dr. Gbonjubola Owolabi stated this on today, during a meeting with management staff of the institution.
Expressing the appreciation of the College to NELFUND, the Provost also congratulated the students on their success saying, “This is to inform the College that we received the loan funds for 75 students yesterday.”
Owolabi, who lauded the initiative, stated that out of the 78 students of the College who applied for the scheme, 75 benefitted from the loan programme.
“Our College is grateful to NELFUND for this support to our students. The College also congratulates these 75 students. This strategic effort aims to ensure that students who really need the funds can continue their education by lowering the burden of financial constraints”, she stated.
Gbonjubola said the loan beneficiaries would be invited to a meeting by the College for appropriate documentation of students who applied in the 2025/2026 session pointing out, “NELFUND has paid the full fees of about 96% of the students who applied for the loan. This is impressive.”
She, therefore, implored other students to apply for NELFUND loan, as this would ease their ongoing educational pursuit.
