His Eminence Muhammadu Sanusi II, the 16th Emir of Kano, has once more accepted his new role as an undergraduate at North-West University in Kano.
The Emir is seen giving lectures to his 200-level classmates, a development that has received a lot of praise and attention.
Emir Sanusi reaffirmed that lifelong learning is a process, and that age should never prevent people from learning.
He also reaffirmed the importance of significant education investment across all levels, citing it as a crucial tool for societal development and good governance.
Derek Chisora will face former world heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder in London in April in his 50th career fight.
Chisora, 42, said last year he would retire after a 50th bout which would take place overseas.
But BBC Sport understands the Briton has instead chosen to take on Wilder in London on 4 April.
The pair were due to fight 13 years ago but Wilder withdrew from the bout after an arrest for domestic violence prevented him from travelling to the UK.
Wilder won his first 40 fights before drawing with Tyson Fury in 2018 – and then suffered successive defeats by the ‘Gypsy King’ in 2020 and 2021.
Chisora has also faced Fury three times – losing all three, in 2011, 2014 and 2022.
Wilder was once considered the division’s most feared puncher but has struggled to regain his aura since his trilogy with Fury.
The 40-year-old’s stock plummeted after back-to-back stoppage defeats by Joseph Parker in 2023 and Zhilei Zhang in 2024.
After more than a year out, the American returned in June with a low-key seventh-round stoppage of little-known Tyrrell Anthony Herndon.
Yet despite his fall from grace, Wilder has still been heavily linked with a potential fight against unified champion Oleksandr Usyk – should he beat Chisora.
Chisora, meanwhile, is enjoying a late-career resurgence with a three-fight winning run, including points victories over Joe Joyce and Otto Wallin.
He had been linked with a third bout against long-time rival Dillian Whyte or a possible shot at WBO champion Fabio Wardley.
Fury has backed Chisora to win the fight and thinks it should be for a title.
He said: “There should be a belt on the line. You’ve got two legendary fighters here.
‘Wilder not the force he was’ – analysis

If Wilder believes this is merely a warm-up before a lucrative date with Usyk, he may want to think again.
The Bronze Bomber is no longer the wrecking machine who terrorised heavyweights. The invincibility is long gone.
Chisora, by contrast, appears to be squeezing every last drop from his career, fighting with the freedom of a man who knows the end is near.
Stylistically, this is an intriguing match-up. Chisora is a relentless brawler who drags opponents into wars. Wilder is a technically flawed but devastatingly powerful puncher who only needs one clean moment to end a night.

In a furious outburst, Helen Flanagan blasted her ex as a “d**khead.”
Helen Flanagan has slammed her ex-fiancé Scott Sinclair. Currently, the former Coronation Street star resides in a lavish six-bedroom property close to Bolton, where she grew up.
However, it is claimed that Scott wants Helen to downsize four years after she and the 36-year-old former Bristol Rovers ace split up. Helen and her three children reside in the home, which is named Scott’s.
Her home was listed for staggering £1.5 million last year, but it was later reduced to £995,000. However, Helen has since admitted that she will always have “love” for Scott, but there is unmistakably no way for them to leave quietly.
In a recent interview, she said, “He’s a d**khead, but I will always have love for him.” There is no friendship between them, despite they co-parent their three children, Charlie, four, and Matilda, ten.
Helen said to the Daily Mail, “I don’t think we like each other, either. It has been a hell of a challenge. Financially, it has put me in a difficult position. For three and a half years, I have bit my tongue. We only communicate with my father right now, which is a very bad thing.
Over Christmas, Helen was left fuming after Scott failed to turn up at Charlie’s nativity. Instead, he was at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. She fumed on social media: “You really are a piece of sh*t. How dare you not turn up to Charlie’s nativity.”
“Women are sometimes supposed to keep quiet, but why? “, asks the question. She explained to the publication that she was “so depressed,” before stating that she is the household’s main supporter. However, this has consequences, as Helen claims that she frequently accepts positions she wouldn’t normally hold to pay for bills.
She continued, “And being a lot of my mom guilt comes with having kids as well.” I can’t, therefore, fault Scott for stealing so much time from my children. For that, I dislike him.
According to a source, Scott has decided that a six-bedroom home is too big for Helen to live alone with the kids. He pays for the house and all the bills. They continued to say to The Sun, “Helen is digging her heels in and doesn’t want to move.” She enjoys the location, her parents live nearby, and the children have settled at the neighborhood school.
And according to reports, Scott has even made an offer to purchase Helen a new home. They continued, “Scott wants to purchase Helen a four-bedroom home.” He even offered to name it in her name, but he wants to stop the maintenance payments. Helen added value to the property, the source continued, though.
They asserted that Scott wanted to “take the money out” before adding that he was “not being reasonable” when he made the claim that he wanted to sell the house. Helen is said to be trying to reconcile Scott with her past as she moves on with her life and reportedly wants to find love once more. According to a source, “Helen is undoubtedly ready for love.”

She wants to meet a new partner she can really trust and depend on, they continued. She wants to feel like a part of a team with someone, and she wants to have a boyfriend who will also adore her three children because they are her top priorities.
