The Kano State All Progressives Congress Students Council has organised a media briefing to sensitise and enlighten students of higher institutions in the state on the importance of the Nigerian Education Loan Fund and the process of accessing the loan.
The Director General of the council, Yahaya Usman, commended President Bola Tinubu’s administration for initiating the loan programme towards supporting students in transforming their dreams into reality.

The immediate-past Chairman of Kano Municipal Local Government Area, Fa’izu Alfindiki, urged the students to embrace the opportunity by ensuring that they applied for the NELFUND loan.
