LAUTECH Reaffirms Strong Partnership with NELFUND, Clarifies Loan Disbursement Update The management of Ladoke Akintola University of Technology has reaffirmed its cordial and productive relationship with the Nigerian Education Loan Fund following recent media interpretations regarding student loan disbursements.

According to the institution, the intervention significantly reduced financial burdens and improved access to education for many students. Speaking during a pre-convocation press briefing, the university explained that about 19,000 students applied for the NELFUND scheme, while over 15,000 applications have already been verified in line with established procedures.

At no time did LAUTECH suggest any reluctance or failure on the part of NELFUND,” the statement said. The institution added that its intention was solely to highlight progress made so far and reassure stakeholders that the disbursement process remains ongoing and on course.

The Executive Director of Greenworld International, Dr. Joseph Opaleye, has passionately urged Nigerians—especially the people of Ogbomoso and its environs—to prioritize their health. He emphasized that only those in sound and stable health can truly achieve their life aspirations.

Quoting a popular saying, he remarked, “If money is lost, nothing is lost; if health is lost, everything is lost.” Dr. Opaleye made this statement at his Agboin office, opposite the Anglican Cathedral Church in Ogbomoso, during a short lecture for his workers and clients titled “Hypertension: A Silent Killer.”

Expressing concern over the general neglect of health, he lamented that many people work tirelessly but fail to monitor their well-being. “It’s unfortunate that after a long day’s work, people focus on making money and indulging in pleasures without considering their health. This negligence often leads to hypertension,” he stated.

Dr. Opaleye stressed the importance of a balanced lifestyle, acknowledging that enjoying good food and drinks in moderation is fine but should not come at the cost of neglecting one’s health. Comparing hypertension to a thief that strikes silently at night, he advised regular medical checkups, exercise, adequate sleep, and stress management as key preventive measures.

He further highlighted that Greenworld offices worldwide are equipped with advanced health monitoring tools and natural remedies free of chemicals to help manage various ailments.
