Student dances in front of class for being late
In another story, Briefly News reported about a student who was asked to dance in front of the class for being late.
@andilexkzxkz took to his TikTok account to share the hilarious moment. In the clip, he stands in front of the class while the lecturer is busy with other things. Out of all dances, the TikTok user chose to do the Mzala dance challenge. This is a dance that has proven to be very tricky for many.
