A video that has melted hearts online shows the lovely moment a lecturer proposes to his student in class on Valentine’s Day; her reaction leaves many gushing with pleasure.

Love is in the air today as many couples round the world presented different gifts to their respective partners.

For some, their relationship had had a dent, after an apparent betrayal of love and trust.

For others, it was a day of new beginnings as they moved their relationship to another level.

A viral video showed the moment an Abia State University (ABSU) lecturer proposed to his student.

He went down on one knee before the student in the class and asked for her hand in marriage.

After much shyness and delay, she accepted him and his proposal, amid applause from her classmates.

Reactions as ABSU lecturer proposes to his student on Valentine’s Day …

@ESosominiki said: “No be small thing dey happen for school!
So this innocent girl don dey knack already with the lecturer 😄😄🫵🏻🫵🏻🫵🏻”

@PappyJames2 remarked: “Is this legal for a lecturer to date a student?”

@IkeokwuChidozie penned: “The University management should quickly apprehend this man. This is not allowed.”

@Inno4Chi commented: “If he is her current lecturer he may be suspended in a proper country. There is something we call ‘fiduciary relationship’ that exists between lecturer and student, just as doctors have with their patients.

I reckon he may be a lecturer but no longer lectures her class.”

@Beneze758683 stated: “Congratulations to this girl, it shows how good she is . It’s a lesson to other girls that the eyes of men are on them but on how to make themselves available in quality character and resourceful wife to be, is the quality men look at.”
