The State Government created a scholarship specially for 50 girls to study ICT. Unfortunately, only 35 girls applied. With the goal of making Kaduna State a Knowledge – Based Economy and a Technological Hub for Northern Nigeria, Kaduna State Government has now extended the scholarship in Information and Communication Technology at Mewar International University, Nassarawa State to males and females.
About Kaduna State Government
Lord Frederick Lugard, the Governor-General (1914-1919) of Nigeria, moved the Northern Region’s capital from Zungeru to Kaduna. In 1967, Kaduna became the North Central State’s capital, created from the Northern Region.
By 1976, General Murtala Mohammed gave the state its name. In 1987, the military administration of General Ibrahim Babangida created the state of Katsina from Kaduna.
Interestingly, the Nok tribe, one of Africa’s earliest civilizations, is located within the area that makes up Kaduna.
