The Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) has assured its stakeholders, partners, and the general public that its operations will continue seamlessly as the office temporarily adopts a skeletal remote work arrangement due to an ongoing fumigation and sanitation exercise. This was made known in a statement on Tuesday by the Director, Strategic Communications, NELFUND, Mrs. Oseyemi Oluwatuyi, in Abuja.

According to the statement, the fumigation exercise, scheduled to run from Tuesday, 23 December 2025, through the end of the year, forms part of NELFUND’s proactive commitment to maintaining a safe, healthy, and compliant working environment for staff and visitors. It added that during this period, minimal staff presence has been approved for essential on-site functions only adding that this precautionary measure prioritizes staff welfare, with particular consideration given to pregnant women and women of child-bearing age, who may be more vulnerable to exposure during fumigation processes.

NELFUND stated that due to its robust digital infrastructure and well-established remote work framework, the Fund’s core operations, including loan processing, stakeholder engagement, internal coordination, and service delivery will continue remotely without disruption. The statement said NELFUND’s systems are designed to ensure continuity, efficiency, and accountability irrespective of physical office presence.

NELFUND emphasized that this temporary adjustment reflects institutional foresight and responsible governance, demonstrating how technology can be effectively leveraged to sustain uninterrupted public service delivery. The Fund appreciated the understanding and cooperation of all stakeholders during this period and reiterates its unwavering commitment to delivering transparent, efficient, and student-focused education financing services nationwide.
