The Kwara State University, KWASU Student Union has directed students who received their NELFUND upkeep allowance twice to visit their respective banks to complete the reversal of the duplicate payments.
In a notice on Sunday, the union said affected students whose banks had already automatically recalled duplicate funds must sign a consent form authorising the return of the money to the appropriate NELFUND funding account.
“The purpose of the visit is to sign the necessary consent form authorising the bank to return the recalled funds to the appropriate NELFUND funding account,” the notice stated.
It added that the process “is necessary to complete the reversal process and ensure proper reconciliation of the duplicate payment.”
KWASUSU urged the affected students to act quickly to avoid delays.
“All affected students are advised to treat this matter as urgent and comply promptly to avoid unnecessary delays in the resolution of the payment process,” the union said.
The union further advised students who need clarification to contact the designated helpline or visit the university offices handling NELFUND matters.
NELFUND, the Nigerian Education Loan Fund, began disbursement of upkeep allowances to students in federal tertiary institutions earlier this year to support students benefiting from the student loan scheme.
