BREAKING‼️ NANS LAUNCHES SIWES PAYMENT VERIFICATION PORTAL TO RECOVER OUTSTANDING STUDENT ALLOWANCES

The National Association of Nigerian Students has launched the ITF SIWES Payment Compilation Portal to identify students who have completed their industrial training but are yet to receive their SIWES allowances.

The announcement was made in a press statement dated July 2, 2026, and signed by the President of the association, Akinteye Babatunde Afeez.

According to the statement, the initiative follows the inauguration of the Industrial Training Fund (ITF) SIWES and Intervention Projects Assessment, Verification and Monitoring Committee, which was established to assess, verify, and monitor issues surrounding the payment of SIWES allowances to eligible students.

The association explained that the decision to create the portal became necessary following conflicting reports over the disbursement of SIWES funds. While some reports indicate that eligible beneficiaries have received their allowances, numerous students continue to insist that they are yet to be paid.

To resolve the discrepancies and establish the true state of affairs, NANS has opened a dedicated online portal where affected students can submit their details for verification.

Students who have successfully completed their Students Industrial Work Experience Scheme (SIWES) but have not received their allowances have been advised to register through the official portal by providing the required information.

Reaffirming his commitment to Nigerian students, NANS President, Dist. Comr. Akinteye Babatunde Afeez, stated that the association remains dedicated to protecting the interests of students and ensuring that every eligible beneficiary receives the SIWES allowance due to them.

The development is expected to provide a reliable database for verifying unpaid beneficiaries while strengthening ongoing efforts to engage the Industrial Training Fund and other relevant stakeholders in resolving outstanding payment issues.
