The Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, has commenced lectures at Northwest University, Kano, after enrolling as a 200-level law student.
It was reported that the monarch joined other undergraduates for classes on Tuesday, dressed in a black flowing outfit and a white turban.
His attendance in class comes a few weeks after the university offered him special admission into its Bachelor of Laws, LL.B, programme in Common and Sharia Law.
The institution explained that the admission was granted in recognition of his vast experience in governance, economics and public service.
The Northwest University, which was established in 2012, is one of two universities owned by the Kano State Government.
