Corps member's last day makes students cry
Shared on TikTok by @cutedhera, the clip showed the students surrounding their beloved teacher, overcome with grief as they bid her farewell.
Tears streamed down their faces, reflecting the deep bond forged during the few months she taught them.
In the accompanying caption, @cutedhera expressed gratitude for the opportunity to impact her students' lives.
She acknowledged the challenges faced during her National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) year but emphasised the rewarding experience.
The students' heartfelt display of affection left her overwhelmed, prompting tears upon returning home.
She said:
"I felt a whirlwind of emotions during my final PPA visit as my students poured their hearts out, tears flowing freely, expressing their deep attachment and reluctance to see me leave. I’m so grateful for the endless blessing God has bestowed upon me in this journey. He blessed me with success and strength to overcome challenges. They say its not how well you start but how well you finished. What a rough year of service.
"Thank God for graceeeeeeeeee. I almost hated my self for obeying the CLARION CALL. I never liked NYSC but these students i will miss them and I did not realize that not until I got home and started weeping. Their genuine display of love and sadness truly made it a bittersweet farewell. Their tears spoke volumes, echoing the bond we shared and the impact we had on each other. What a sweet bond we had."
In a brief chat with a corps member, Nneoma Alex, she confessed that her case was different since she never built any bond with her students.
In her words:
"I was a strict teacher o. Them no even send me as I come for the last day. This lady was probably playing with them or buying them things that's why they were emotional. I didn't have such time."
