The Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, has started lectures at Northwest University, Kano, after enrolling as a 200-level law student.
Photos shared online show the monarch in class on Tuesday, Jan. 20, with other undergraduates.
The university offered Sanusi special admission into its Bachelor of Laws (LL.B) programme in Common and Sharia Law.
According to the institution, the admission was granted in recognition of his vast experience in governance, economics and public service.
Sanusi, a former governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), is already a PhD holder.
