A female student of the Federal University Oye-Ekiti (FUOYE) has captured an amusing moment on camera, which has since gone viral, sparking reactions across social media platforms.
In a widely shared TikTok video, the student, identified as @just_aliza01, was enthusiastically recording herself dancing along a staircase within a campus building. The moment took an unexpected turn when she suddenly noticed a lecturer approaching her direction.
Respectfully, she paused her recording and stepped aside to allow the lecturer to pass. However, just as the lecturer was about to exit the frame, he playfully switched up his reaction—glancing into the camera, stroking his eyebrow, and momentarily joining in on the fun.
The lecturer’s unexpected participation quickly won over social media users, who applauded his lighthearted approach and ability to engage with students in a relatable manner.
In response to the clip, the student humorously referenced a recent viral controversy at Nnamdi Azikiwe University (UNIZIK), where a female student was expelled after recording a video featuring a lecturer without permission.
She captioned the video: “POV: I almost got ‘Uniziked,’ but it was Dr Steeze.”
The video has sparked widespread engagement, with many users praising the lecturer, now dubbed ‘Dr Steeze,’ for his cool and modern approach to interacting with students. Many are advocating for more lecturers like him, who bring a refreshing balance of professionalism and fun into the academic environment.
One social media user, Tonia_ify, reacted, “Everything that happened in this video, apart from that girl that looked like a weapon formed against you, is just so mature, 100% maturity, STEEZE, composure—this is how life is supposed to be.”
Another user, Nwene__keyzz, added, “First of all, you can CLEARLY see the respect she has for the lecturer, and the sir sef is on TikTok too—not like the other one that felt disrespected.”
