She explained that the photo was taken in September 1993 at a student gathering during their first week on campus.

“Young’uns, please follow the message from my former law school classmate Noordin Haji: “I want to caution everybody to obey the rules, especially the young people… Okonkwo hatawezana na COVID-19 kama haoshi mikono na kuvaa mask.”

“Throwback: September 1993, 1st week of the first year of university.” At a students gathering in the Students Union, University of Wales, Cardiff. 2 law students and 3 medics We had fun, but we were all sticklers for the rules,” captioned Gichuru.
