Shock as Nigerian University Class Stays Empty While Professor Teaches Alone on Camera

video of a teacher going viral : A video of a Nigerian university professor lecturing in an almost empty classroom has gone viral on social media, sparking a heated debate about students’ attitudes toward education in the country. The clip shows the dedicated lecturer delivering his lesson despite the absence of students, and many users are praising his professionalism while others question why learners failed to attend the class.​

Education commentators say the viral video highlights deeper problems in Nigeria’s higher education system, including poor class attendance, low motivation, and weak enforcement of academic discipline. On platforms like Facebook, Instagram and X, some Nigerians are applauding the teacher for showing commitment to his job, while others argue that both the school authorities and students share responsibility for the empty lecture hall.

The video has also renewed calls for universities and government agencies to improve learning conditions and re-engage students after years of strikes, economic hardship, and digital distractions. Many social media users urge students to take their studies more seriously, warning that skipping lectures could damage their future chances in an already competitive job market in Nigeria.
