In a related development, NELFUND has announced the receipt of N2,000,000 through a bank draft, given by Asiwaju Adegboyega Solomon Awomolo, a distinguished Senior Advocate of Nigeria and former beneficiary, in the 1970s, of the defunct federal government student loans scheme.

 

The fund, in a press statement signed by Monalisa Dike for the director, Corporate Communications said Awomolo benefitted from the loan during his undergraduate studies at the University of Ife (now Obafemi Awolowo University) in the 1975/1976 and 1976/1977 academic sessions.

 

It said Awomolo commitment to refund demonstrated his unwavering commitment to the nation by repaying the loan in full.

 

The loan, which at the time amounted to a total of N1,000.00 for both sessions, was instrumental in helping him complete his law degree.
