Kano, Nigeria – In a recent visit to the Aminu Kano College of Islamic and Legal Studies, Kano State’s Special Adviser to the Governor on Higher Education, Professor Auwalu Haliru Arzai, emphasized the importance of instilling moral discipline, self-reliance, and patriotism within higher education institutions.
During his visit to the college, Professor Arzai commended the institution for its track record of producing morally upright and academically sound students. He urged higher institutions to ensure they provide students with a strong foundation in moral values and a sense of patriotism, guiding them as they enter the workforce.
Furthermore, Professor Arzai encouraged the Aminu Kano College of Islamic and Legal Studies to explore alternative revenue-generating avenues. He assured the institution of the Kano State government’s commitment to transforming the education sector and supporting their initiatives.
