Do you know the story behind the “Ali Must Go” protest?

In July 1978, Nigerian students took a stand against a sharp increase in university feeding and accommodation fees. What began as a protest soon became one of the most significant moments in Nigeria’s student movement.

Decades later, the issues of access, affordability, and quality education continue to shape conversations about higher education in Nigeria.

Understanding our history helps us better appreciate the present and inspires us to build a better future.

Your career doesn’t begin after graduation, it begins while you’re still in university.

The habits you build today can shape the opportunities you receive tomorrow.

Whether it’s creating your LinkedIn profile, gaining practical experience, volunteering, building your network, or developing in-demand skills, every small step counts.

At SLEF, we believe preparing students for success goes beyond the classroom. That’s why we’re sharing practical career tips to help you become career-ready before you graduate.

Who actually qualifies for a scholarship?

Many students never apply for scholarships because they believe common myths that simply aren’t true.

The truth is that scholarships can be open to students from different academic backgrounds, year levels, and disciplines. Many providers also look beyond grades, considering factors such as leadership, financial need, community impact, and future potential.

At SLEF, we believe education should be accessible to deserving students, and our commitment goes beyond financial support by helping scholars grow academically, personally, and professionally.

Take a moment to swipe through this carousel and separate fact from fiction.

Whether you’re a parent, student, teacher, or simply interested in education, we hope this helps you better understand the conversation.
