The Capital City University Kano has been granted full licence to operate as a private University in Nigeria.
ROYAL NEWS reports that this was the outcome of the National Universities Commission (NUC) visitation panel which was hosted in the U University in October 2024.
Hajiya Rakiya Bello Dangado, the University’s Registrar in a statement issued on Monday said: “The panel was impressed with the standard of the facilities and operational procedures of the new university which started operation in 2021.
“The management of NUC therefore granted a full license to the university in place of the provisional certificate initially issued at commencement.”
“This outcome is a product of commitment to excellence by the governing council, management and staff of the institution who have been working collectively to create a niche for the university”.
Dangado added that, “The University, located in the heart of Kano City is committed to changing the face of education in Kano, Nigeria and the entire world by continuously improving its infrastructure to meet the ever changing tertiary educational needs of the society.
“A statement from the office of the Vice Chancellor, Professor Yusuf Daraja congratulates all the stakeholders particularly the students of the university for this promising achievement coming within the few years of operation.”
