Announcement by Akintunde Sawyer
Akintunde Sawyer, the Executive Secretary of the Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND), revealed this postponement in an interview with Arise News on Tuesday. He cited the need for corrections around the launch process as the primary reason for the delay.
Lack of Specific Date
Despite acknowledging the postponement, Sawyer refrained from providing a new launch date. He emphasized the necessity of ensuring alignment among stakeholders to avoid blindsiding anyone involved before rolling out the scheme comprehensively.
Presidential Intentions
Sawyer reiterated the government’s commitment to the project, highlighting President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s earnest desire to see it come to fruition at the earliest. However, the absence of a concrete timeline raises concerns among eager beneficiaries.
Background and Delay
The Access to Higher Education Act, 2023, signed into law by President Tinubu on June 12, 2023, marked a significant milestone in expanding educational opportunities for underprivileged students. The subsequent delay in implementing the Loan Scheme, initially slated for September, has been a source of frustration for many.

Tinubu’s Promise and Persistence
Despite setbacks, President Tinubu remained steadfast in his promise to liberalize education funding. His minister, Dele Alake, affirmed that the delay was merely a hurdle in fulfilling a crucial campaign pledge.
Uncertainty Looms
With each postponement, uncertainty looms over the fate of the Student Loan Scheme. While the government reassures its commitment, the lack of a definitive timeline undermines confidence in the project’s execution.
In conclusion, the indefinite postponement of the Student Loan Scheme launch underscores the challenges inherent in implementing ambitious educational reforms. As stakeholders await further updates, the need for transparency and accountability remains paramount to regain trust and ensure equitable access to education for all Nigerian students.
