Abstract

ABSTRACT
This paper examines the role of the Muslim Students’ Society of Nigeria (MSSN) in
curbing immorality among students of Bayero University, Kano (BUK). Using a
mixed-methods approach archival review, document analysis, and semi-structured
interviews with MSSN leaders and selected students, the study explores MSSN’s
historical mission, programmes (religious instruction, counselling, outreach, peer
regulation), and perceived impact on students’ moral behavior. Findings indicate
that MSSN at BUK has sustained a visible presence through regular religious
programmes, peer counselling, public campaigns, and inter-society collaborations
that promote Islamic ethics and discipline. However, structural constraints (limited
funding, varying student commitment, campus-wide social influences) moderate its
effectiveness. The paper concludes with recommendations for strengthening
MSSN’s preventive and rehabilitative strategies and for collaborative university
society partnerships to improve moral outcomes on campuses.
