After enrolling in a university at the age of 69, an Ethiopian father of 11 has become a social media celebrity in the country.
Tadesse Ghichile, who was orphaned at an early age, was unable to pursue his official education after middle school until much later.
He is now enrolled in Jimma University in the country's western region, where he aims to obtain a medical degree.
Tadesse Ghichile is an agriculturist. He supports his family by working in a café in his hamlet when he is not tilling the soil.
Despite this, he managed to take - and pass - the national university entrance exam.
He opted to return to formal education 10 years ago, after dropping out in eighth grade due to his parent's deaths.
He had struggled to return to school for a long time, especially after starting a family. He was resolved to see it through once he returned.
He's now a student at one of the country's largest colleges.
He told the BBC that he has had a lot of support from fellow students in recent years and that he is looking forward to the future.
