NUC Grants Full Operational Licence to Capital City University, Kano

The National Universities Commission (NUC) has granted Capital City University, Kano, a full operational licence, allowing it to continue its activities as a private university in Nigeria.

This significant achievement followed a recent visit by an NUC accreditation panel earlier in October, during which the commission assessed the institution's facilities and operational standards. Impressed by the university's commitment to quality education and infrastructure, the NUC upgraded its status from a provisional to a full licence.

In a statement issued by the university's registrar, Hajiya Rakiya Bello Dangado, the panel's positive feedback acknowledged the dedication of the governing council, management, and staff to maintaining high standards since the university commenced operations in 2021.

"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," the statement read.

The Vice Chancellor, Professor Yusuf Daraja, expressed his appreciation to the university community, highlighting that the full licence represents a remarkable milestone achieved within just a few years of establishment. He congratulated all stakeholders, particularly the students, for their contribution to this accomplishment.

Located in the heart of Kano City, Capital City University aims to transform the educational landscape by continually improving its infrastructure and academic programs to meet the evolving needs of society.

This development positions the university for greater growth and academic excellence, while also reflecting the NUC's ongoing efforts to ensure quality higher education across Nigeria.
