The Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) says a social media document claiming that student upkeep allowances under the Federal Government’s Student Loan Scheme for the 2025/2026 academic session have been suspended is fake. In a statement responding to the circulating claim, NELFUND indicates that the public should disregard the document and rely only on official announcements from the fund. Both outlets report that the purported “suspension notice” is not an authorized communication from NELFUND. The development comes amid online posts that suggest allowances will not be paid for the upcoming academic year. NELFUND’s clarification is intended to correct misinformation and prevent students and other stakeholders from acting on unverified information. The fund does not, in the reports provided, specify that any actual suspension has been issued, but instead focuses on debunking the allegation and directing attention to official channels for updates.
