The Kano State Government has reaffirmed its commitment to enhancing educational opportunities for its youth, with plans to sponsor an additional 1,002 students for overseas studies, following the successful sponsorship of 1,001 students last year.
This was revealed by the state Deputy Governor, Aminu Abdussalam Gwarzo, during a courtesy visit by the European Union Delegation ahead of the 2025 Study in Europe Fair in Kano.
In a statement on Thursday by his spokesperson, Ibrahim Garba Shuaibu, the Deputy governor described the initiative as a “bridge for creating a future where the youth of Kano could access world-class education and participate fully in the global knowledge economy.
He further highlighted that the Kano state Government has prioritised education, as reflected in the highest budgetary allocation to the sector in Nigeria for 2024 and 2025.
