Briggs who spoke at a stakeholders’ engagement meeting held at Government House, Benin City, also hailed President Bola Tinubu for launching the initiative and Governor Monday Okpebholo for bringing it to Edo State.

The event was aimed at educating the public on how students in Edo State could access the federal government’s interest-free education loan and ensure that no child is denied education due to financial challenges.

“This programme is a game-changer. It means a child in primary school today can be confident that secondary school and even university education are within reach. No one should miss out on education because of money,” she said.

She urged citizens to spread the news about the scheme. “Tell somebody to tell somebody about NELFUND. If you meet the criteria, you are guaranteed funding for your education,” she emphasised.

 

The event brought together key education stakeholders including the deputy governor, Hon Dennis Idahosa, who represented Governor Okpebholo; commissioner for Education, Dr Paddy Emmanuel Iyamu and the managing director of NELFUND, Mr Akintunde Oluwole Sawyer.
