The Nigerian Education Loan Fund has disbursed a total of ₦22,656,000 to Federal Polytechnic Wannune for the 2025/2026 academic session.
The intervention, announced on February 10, 2026, is expected to benefit 354 students, covering their tuition and other statutory charges.
The disbursement forms part of ongoing efforts by NELFUND to expand access to tertiary education by easing the financial burden on students across the country.
With the funding, beneficiaries at the institution will be able to continue their academic programmes without interruption, particularly those who may have faced challenges meeting their financial obligations.
NELFUND’s student loan initiative has continued to support institutions nationwide, ensuring that more Nigerians have the opportunity to pursue higher education regardless of their economic background.
