I experimented with asymmetry to draw users to the more important features. Removed the refer banner as opay is already wide spread, For airtime page, I retained the home bar and removed the double text.

URGENT CALL FOR HELP!!!!!
This is a young medical doctor called Dr Innocent. He’s working as a house officer at the Nigerian Navy Reference Hospital in Calabar, Cross River State.
Dr Innocent and his other doctor colleagues who are also house officers have NOT been paid for 290 days.
Yes you read that right.
A whole 290 days of working as a medical doctor with ZERO pay. That’s about 10 months work with NO pay.
According to Dr Innocent,
The Ministry of Defence has refused to pay their salaries for no reason. This young medical doctors are being worked like slaves while receiving ZERO pay.
They have nobody to speak for them.
They have nobody to fight for them.
They are suffering and dying in silence.
Please if you see this tweet,
Kindly retweet, share and tag General Christopher Musa the Minister of Defence, and also please tag the Ministry of Defence,
I don’t know these doctors personally,
But we can’t watch evil and say nothing.
Please don’t let this young doctors suffer in vain, they have families who depend on them for support and survival,
It will only take you 2seconds,
Kindly retweet this post. This is the little we can do to help these doctors from the evil injustice done to them by the Ministry of Defence.
Pls share and retweet. Thank you.

@KennethSundayy@Manjulvic I stay off camp
How do I go about it.
We were told something like this was coming last month, but at some point, there was an information gap
A month ago, I saw Hydonni on the TL, was interested in how she saw the world and why exhibitionism is a central part of her front-end approach.
My curiosity was piqued, so I reached out.
Had a lengthy phone call with her, listened to her story, and I understand her position.
Nigerians have this obsession with wanting to paint themselves as victims and in a worse situation than the next person. Do you want pity?
"Your own even better. If I tell you my own."
"Life soft for you, you no wetin suffer be?"
You don't know people's situation and you are not even interested. You just want to comparatively victimize yourself as though there is an award for who suffer pass. Who even determines who suffer pass? What is the metric?
Oh. I had just 5 minutes to get to his office as I had an impromptu test that dragged. So I ran to his office to meet up with time. Got there panting. He offered me a seat, a sandwich and a cold drink. Then said "next time, just send an email, I'd understand".
I wanted to cry because that's some form of trauma that I shouldn't have picked up if I came from a sane place.
NELFUND is an unsuccessful scheme.
Very disorganised, failed and disappointed students and should be scrapped.
Apart from the fact that ₦20,000 per month for upkeep is extremely inconsiderate in the current economy, the payment itself is irregular and unpredictable. Students cannot plan feeding, transport or accommodation with a scheme that pauses without warning.
Another major failure is lack of transparency. There is no clear explanation for delays, no proper public communication and no accountability when payments are skipped. Students are left guessing, refreshing dashboards and relying on rumours.
The portal approval system is misleading. Students are shown an approved amount, yet NELFUND refuses to pay what it approved. Approval without full disbursement is deception, not support.
There is also poor stakeholder engagement. Universities, students and even school bursaries are often unaware of payment timelines or changes. A national scheme should not operate like a secret club.
Customer support is practically non-existent. Complaints go unanswered, emails are ignored and there is no effective helpdesk to resolve urgent student issues.
The scheme shows zero understanding of academic calendars. Students applied for a session, were approved and verified, received payment only twice, and then were told to reapply for another session just to continue receiving funds meant for the same academic year. That is administrative incompetence.
NELFUND also fails in equity and fairness.
Students who applied at the same time receive payments at different intervals or not at all, with no justification. That creates unnecessary hardship and resentment.
Finally, the scheme lacks policy consistency. Rules change midstream, conditions shift without notice and students bear the consequences of poor planning by the administrators.
A student loan scheme that cannot guarantee consistency, transparency and dignity is not a support system. It is a liability.
