A touching video of a Nigerian lady publicly thanking her stepdad for his unwavering support throughout her university journey has stirred emotions online.
The emotional moment was captured in a video shared on the popular social media platform, TikTok by the user @sandrablink4.
The grateful graduate revealed that her stepfather selflessly sponsored her education at a private university, providing her with a loving and supportive environment akin to a father-daughter relationship.
In the video, the graduate can be seen kneeling before her stepfather as he signs her graduation shirt, marking the end of her four-year academic journey.
In the caption accompanying the video, the graduate expressed her deep gratitude, referring to her stepfather as “the dad I never had.”
She wrote:
“POV: Your step dad sponsored your four years of schooling in a private university. A dad I never had. I love you dad.”
