Man proposes to lady while standing
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a man had proposed to his woman while still standing.
A short clip sighted on TikTok captured the man on both feet at a gathering as he asked the lady to be his wife.
Chants from people at the gathering urging the lady to say yes, rent the air. When she eventually accepted, a man began raining money on the couple while people jubilated in the background.
