Ganduje, therefore, charged students to make the best use of the opportunity to pursue their educational careers.

Commenting on the ongoing Continuous Voter Registration (CVR), the governor urged those eligibles among the students to go and obtain their voter cards before the expiration of the exercise.

He further stressed the need for all eligible people in the state to register in view of the fact that Kano State has been left behind in the ongoing online voter registration exercise.

“We are always monitoring the exercise in other states right from the beginning because it is online, in fact, are left behind.
