Nigerian Female Students Endorse Tinubu, Shettima for 2027

The Association of Nigerian Female Students (ANFS) endorsed President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima for a second term in 2027. This endorsement was announced at the National Female Students Conference held at the Women Development Centre in Abuja.

ANFS urged the federal government to enhance policies on girls' education, student welfare, and women's economic empowerment. National President Comrade Peter Attracta Precious stated that the endorsement was based on government policies believed to expand educational opportunities for female students.

The association emphasized the need for continuity in policies affecting education and women's development, calling for improved implementation and accountability. ANFS identified the Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) as a crucial intervention for financially disadvantaged students, reporting approximately 440,000 female beneficiaries.

The association also acknowledged the First Lady Oluremi Tinubu's initiatives addressing menstrual hygiene and school attendance, including the Flow with Confidence initiative, which provided sanitary pads to 370,000 schoolgirls.
