"As a teacher, I know what kind of logistics it takes to teach online with unstable internet. But I can't say I've ever had to teach a class in her position (literally), outside in the cold, with unstable energy, in the middle of a war. She has my deepest respect and admiration."

Nigerian lady who stayed back to support Ukraine
Meanwhile, Briefly News reported that as war loomed over Ukraine following the various threats the country was getting from Russia, Victoria Osemene made a TikTok video to show support. This was about a month before the war broke out, and in April, she made another.
Days after that second video, she made a clip singing the Ukrainian national anthem that shot her to fame.
The 27-year-old Nigerian stated that she heavily drew her inspiration to keep making videos from the country's president, Zelenskyy, who never abandoned his people in the heat of the war. According to her, the president kept his words to stay, which greatly inspired her.
