A Nigerian woman, whose military father prevented her from playing as a child, made the decision to give in to her desires despite her advanced age.
She stormed a river and played in the sand while being filmed in a video that was uploaded to the well-known app TikTok.
The video went viral online because so many people could relate to her predicament and others thought it was funny.
“I wasn’t given the opportunity to play when I was a kid. All in the name of having a military dad”, she wrote.
