Introducing! Emerald Secondary School Students' Account : A & U Ng

Save with Emerald and Get 2% Interest on Monthly Savings

The Emerald for Secondary School Students is a Package aimed at orienting parents, sponsors, guardians, tutors and secondary school students on the need to save for the future academic needs of the would-be scholars while gathering 2% interest on a monthly basis on their savings.

Today, we believe that University education should no longer be left unplanned. Rather, we look into the future with a view to seeing how best to secure our ward’s education financial needs.

With Emerald for Secondary School Students, a parent with secondary school ward(s) who is/are set to transit to the university can open an Emerald Secondary School account and save for the future University Education of their wards in advance.

This savings has become imperative as lack of funds is now making many newly admitteds forfeit their admissions (admissions withdrawal for the Niger Delta University 2020/2021 newly admitted students started June 8, 2021).

In the 2020/2021 admission year which is ongoing as at the time of this publication, available data about admissions revealed that admissions of students who were unable to pay their school fees up to the tune of 1,300 were withdrawn.

The above information was deducted from data sent to our A & U Ng publishing office from the NDU VC’s office on May 26^th that out of 3,980 newly admitted students, only 2,680 students have duly paid school fees.

While this was ongoing, Emerald members who have duly registered and qualified for loans were able to process their loans and paid their fees before time, hence their admissions were duly secured.

This was a very deep foresight on the part of students who thought it wise to use the community effort of Emerald to further plan their academic needs.

Looking forward and foreseeing the possible challenges tomorrow may bring, it has become an expert advice to save for tomorrow. This is to ensure we collaboratively surmount any financial challenges that newly admitted students often face.

So, you must start saving today and gather interest so that once your admission comes, straight ahead, you have a seamless entry into the university.

What are the Risks in Saving with Emerald for Secondary School Students?

Emerald was established late March, 2021 and till date, many who want to save but have fallen to failed financial institutions in the past have been bothered on the genuineness of Emerald and the possibility that they are not entering into another scam or enterprise that will fail tomorrow.

In a country where fraud has become the order of the day, it is actually hard to tell who is who, hence the best way is to count everyone as same. This actually save us from falling into schemes that are not well planned, thought out and are prone to fail.

The above nonetheless, you must understand that Emerald funds are often in members’ school fees profiles. This means the total money of Emerald and by extension, A & U Ng funds amongst others are on loan to students to pay their school fees.

This again means that there is no money to embezzle anywhere as all the funds are into loans. Any recorded profits are used to plan for scholarships and promotions hence, there is no money on ground to misappropriate. Where there are excess funds, all such are kept for anticipated loan requests.

Again, Emerald is fully registered under the Bayelsa State Cooperative Laws, hence you are fully covered by the State Laws. Our office is located at No. 1, NDU Road, Main Campus Gate, Wilberforce Island, Bayelsa State.

The only risk in saving with Emerald is not in the management of Emerald but in loan repayment behaviour of the members. The management of Emerald covers for possible shortfalls in repayment of loans through various practices, therefore, loan repayment shortfalls may not be an issue.

The above nonetheless, we are covered by the academic certificates of the members. Any Emerald member who avoid loan repayment and allow it till final year have interest accumulated awaiting him/her when they want to nicodemusly claim their certificates as their various institutions will be intimated of their indebtedness to Emerald.

The management of Emerald Students’ Cooperative assures all prospective members that their savings are 100% safe with the cooperative.

This is to say that any termination of funds within 9 months will NOT get any interest. This is because savings for future academic needs are not expected to be terminated.
