PART EMIR, PART FASHIONISTA: MOHAMMED SANUSI II
Once upon a time, the Sanusi Lamido Sanusi we knew wore mainly bishop neck suits, bow ties and regular suits.
Looking back at his style back then as Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, I see now that he had a thing for stripes… polkadots too.
Even now as the Emir of Kano, his love for stripes and prints shines through, but that’s not even all. From his babariga to his al-kyabba(cape) down to his tagwayen masu (staff), the Sarkin Kano is no doubt one stylish ruler, arguably the most stylish Kano has ever had.
