Lecturer shares boiled corn for students in class
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a Nigerian lecturer had distributed boiled corn to his students during class.
His deed was well received as the students excitedly collected the boiled corns which came in yellow nylon. A student was observed in the video helping the kind-hearted lecturer in the distribution process.
The lecturer's act was greeted with a wave of mixed thoughts. There were those who argued that his gesture wasn't all that pure and may have some voodoo implications. Others thought the man's deed was worthy of commendation.
