Missing billions from student loans. Scandals at education funds. Policy changes that affect your access to school. If you care about learning in Nigeria — whether you're a student, parent, teacher or policymaker — this tag brings the stories that matter.
Here you'll find reporting and updates on fraud, funding, government action and what those developments mean for students trying to pay tuition or finish their studies. A recent, high-profile story about N71.2bn linked to the Nigeria Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) shows why oversight and clear rules are vital. Readers come here for facts, timelines, and practical next steps, not noise.
Short, clear pieces that explain complex issues. Expect: investigative reports on missing funds and who’s being held responsible; documented reactions from agencies like the ICPC; timelines showing how funds moved (or didn’t reach students); and explainers on how loan schemes work and how to apply. We also publish practical guides: how to check your loan status, how to report suspected fraud, and where to find verified student relief programs.
For example, our coverage of the N71.2bn student loan case breaks down the numbers: only N28.8bn of a N100bn release reached students, what that means for affected borrowers, and what legal steps activists are pushing for. That story includes calls for fast action from anti-corruption bodies and what to watch next.
