EducationNELFUND To Fund Vocational Training For Tradesmen, Apprentices by luckgood(op): 8:48am On Jun 29, 2025
The Nigerian Education Loan Fund said it will partner with Yaba College of Technology to expand access to Technical and Vocational Education and Training, especially for apprentices and tradesmen in the informal sector.

The partnership was cemented during a high-level stakeholder engagement held at YABATECH on Thursday, where NELFUND Managing Director/CEO, Mr Akintunde Sawyerr, visited the institution to discuss the student loan rollout and explore new inclusion models for non-traditional learners.

Speaking at the event, Sawyerr emphasised NELFUND’s commitment to ensuring that financial support reaches every Nigerian learner, including those pursuing vocational and technical education through informal or non-traditional pathways.

“What YABATECH is doing with its Workplace Learning Centres is exactly the type of model we want to support. If apprentices in places like Computer Village are given structured, certifiable training, NELFUND can provide them with the financial backing to complete that training,” Sawyerr said.

He added that expanding loan access beyond conventional tertiary institutions aligned with the Fund’s vision of inclusive human capital development.

“Education is not limited to lecture halls and degree programs. It includes the acquisition of practical, marketable skills. That’s why we’re exploring how to fund not just university students but also young Nigerians in technical and vocational pathways,” he added.

While at the event, Sawyerr also addressed public concerns about delays in loan disbursements, refund processes, and complaints from students who paid fees before their loans were approved.
“Some students who paid their fees early are now due for refunds, but most institutions don’t have a structured refund process or students’ bank account details. It’s a new challenge, and we’re working through it,” he said.

He also responded to a recommendation by the ICPC to refund money into a recovery account.

“There is no recovery here. No one stole money. Refunds should either go to the students directly or be managed through NELFUND. We have to protect the integrity of this process,” he explained.

On the eligibility of graduated students, he clarified that NELFUND would not penalise students who finished their programs before receiving disbursements.

“Graduation is not a crime. We will disburse to them as long as they applied when eligible. Many planned their finances based on this loan, and we will honor that,” he said.

Sawyerr said further, “If we can empower apprentices, technicians, and tradesmen with financing, training, and certification, we will not just improve livelihoods, we will drive economic transformation.”

In his remarks, the Rector of YABATECH, Dr Ibraheem Abdul, disclosed that the college has already begun formalising apprenticeship systems through its Workplace Learning Centre in Ikeja’s Computer Village, where many young Nigerians undergo informal training in ICT, mobile phone repairs, and computer maintenance.

“We observed that many apprentices undergo unstructured training and leave without any certification, making them undervalued and underpaid. So we went to where the apprentices are and established a Workplace Learning Centre,” Abdul said.

He explained that the centre trains both the master craftsmen and their apprentices under the Nigerian Skills Qualification Framework and prepares them for national certification.

“Without certification, they lose confidence and earning power. Our goal is to formalise their training, certify them, and now, through NELFUND, provide access to financing that can help them pay for that training,” he added.

Abdul stressed that YABATECH was a registered NSQF training provider with qualified assessors and a robust system for skills training.

He called on the Federal Government to continue supporting institutions that bridge the gap between the informal and formal sectors.

YABATECH, currently in the process of transitioning into a degree-awarding university, reiterated its commitment to maintaining its technical education legacy.

“We are proud of our TVET identity. As we move toward becoming a university, we are not abandoning our roots. Rather, we are expanding them,” Dr. Abdul noted.

He also said that the college had consolidated all tuition components and conducted sensitisation across departments to ensure smooth implementation of the loan scheme.

“We’ve streamlined our fee structure and worked with our Accounts and Academic departments to make sure no student is caught off guard,” he added.

TV/MoviesKeeping Up With Kardashians Final Season In 2021 by luckgood(op): 5:13am On Sep 09, 2020
You won't be 'Keeping Up' much longer -- the Kardashians are officially pulling the plug on their TV show next year.


Kim Kardashian made the announcement Tuesday, posting ... "To our amazing fans -- It is with heavy hearts that we’ve made the difficult decision as a family to say goodbye to Keeping Up with the Kardashians."

She adds, "After what will be 14 years, 20 seasons, hundreds of episodes and numerous spin-off shows, we are beyond grateful to all of you who’ve watched us for all of these years – through the good times, the bad times, the happiness, the tears, and the many relationships and children. We’ll forever cherish the wonderful memories and countless people we’ve met along the way."

Kim goes on to thank EP Ryan Seacrest, E! and countless others.


KKW also says their final season will air in 2021 -- but she doesn't explain why the "First Family" of reality TV is saying farewell to their hit show.


What she does finish with is a lot of gratitude for what the series has brought her entire family. Kim writes, "Without Keeping Up with The Kardashians, I wouldn’t be where I am today. I am so incredibly grateful to everyone who has watched and supported me and my family these past 14 incredible years. This show made us who we are and I will be forever in debt to everyone who played a role in shaping our careers and changing our lives forever."


'KUWTK' has had an incredible run -- 20 seasons is a milestone few TV shows ever hit -- plus it became a pop culture fixture over that time.

FamilyRe: The Biggest Mistake In Marriage Right Now For A Woman by luckgood(m): 9:12am On May 23, 2020
KingSatan:
As a man, a father and a grandfather. I have lived life to an extent and this is my view on this subject.

The previous thread was simple and concise, "Never marry a woman who has no means of income".

But that is the truth!

Gone are the days when people marry "Obiageri's" according to the Igbos.
Back then, things weren't this bad. Considering the family setting in those days, women had no other role than to cook, birth, raise children and clean the house.

So their parents prepare them for marriage, teach them how to cook, satisfy a man and raise children. They also spend alot of time grooming their hairs, taking care of their skin (Some parents send their children to fattening rooms) and waiting to get married.

When we got married, we married to keep them at home and show off to our friends. Only a few of us married because of love. Some of our partners were not our choice but our parents.

So when you marry, your wife and children should always reflect your wealth and networth. Most especially, YOUR WIFE.

I repeat, back then things were not this bad and everyone knew their roles.

But in today's world, so many things have changed.

Women should bring to the table as much as they expect from the man.

Raising children costs alot of money and shouldn't be the responsibility of the man alone.

So many marriages have crashed on the alter of poverty or "One stream of income".

We must learn to tell ourselves the truth always.

Back then, you don't spend so much to raise a child. If he or she wants to go to the community school or follow the white man's way of life, you send them as a punishment. But those humble and loyal sons, follow you to the farm and when they come of age, you give them farmlands and wives if possible. But that's not the case anymore.

Apart from formal education abroad, I also encouraged my children to learn sellable skills. One of my son is a fashion designer and that is what puts food on his table in the UK. His college degree only reflects on his call cards.

I told this to my children (Daughters inclusive) never to marry a man or woman who has no verifiable means of income.

Money is needed to run a home in the 21st century. Alot of money!

We no longer live in mud houses or drink from pots.

As for "Entitlement", I think every couple should have that mentality depending on the context.

The man is entitled to his wife's emotional commitment. She is his wife and this also applies to the man.

I am tired of typing.

To be truthful, i warned my son's against mingling with an average African woman. They simply don't want to know the truth. They hate the truth with Passion and that is why true feminism failed woefully here.

In the Diaspora, most men who want peace of mind avoid African women because of their "Entitlement Mentality" and how exploitative they are.

Many of these women don't work but enjoy proceeds of child support from numerous partners. You think it's a coincidence? No it not. It was deliberate.

They just want to seat at home, get fat, enlarge their butts and walk up and down the street like a pussy cat that resides in Buckingham Palace.

Should I talk about Nigeria, where you meet an average Nigerian lady and realise that;

1. She is a college graduate because a "Man" sponsored her in school (Both of them are no longer together as a couple).

2. She has a roof over her head because a "Man" made that available (She has no intention of marrying him).

3. She uses the best smartphone because a "Man" bought it for her (Just another random man).

4. She has clothes on her body because a "Man" gave her money for shopping (Obviously he is "One of those mugus"wink.

5. She has food on her table because so many men send her money.

This same woman has no other skill but sexual skills. The only thing she can offer is "Sexual Intercourse", "Birthing Children" and "Companionship" but she expects the man to "Mark her birthdays with a brand new Escalade", "Buy her parents a new house and train her younger ones in school". Is that not exploitation?

This same woman hates her mother inlaw because she sees her as her rival. Anyway, women have always hated themselves from time immemorial, don't get moved when you see them shout in solidarity, it's just for a few seconds.

When asked about their contribution in the relationship or Marriage, some will say "I birthed children for him". But that's your natural default woman!

Even if you sleep with a sexually active mad man, you will get pregnant and birth for him.

Some will even say, "I satisfy him sexually. I gave him my body and soul". But that is same thing you did with your numerous ex lovers.

According to Pastor Sam Adeyemi, he said "If a woman does not help her husband financially, then how else does she want to help him".

In this age and time, it takes two adults who have a verifiable means of income to build a healthy family.


Cheers!
I just copy and send to a friend on WhatsApp. Thank you sir!

To everyone grieving and non grieving . Remember this..

"This world is not my home I'm just a passing through
My treasures are laid up somewhere beyond the blue
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore
Oh lord you know I have no friend like you
If heaven's not my home then lord what will I do
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore
I have a loving mother just over in gloryland
And I don't expect to stop until I shake her hand
She's waiting now for me in heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore
Oh lord you know I have no friend like you
If heaven's not my home Then lord what will I do
The angels beckon me From heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home In this world anymore
Just over in gloryland
We'll live eternally
The saints on every hand are shouting victory
Their songs of sweetest praise
Drift back from heaven's shore
And I can't feel at home In this world anymore
Oh lord, you know I have no friend like you
If heaven's not my home Then lord what will I do
The angels beckon me From heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home In this world anymore"


Song by Late Jim Reeves
