Another woman competed with young people
Meanwhile, it was earlier reported that a Nigerian man identified as Ekenechukwu shared a video on Instagram showing an old woman 'sparring' against young people in traditional Igbo dance.
In the short clip, the woman stood beside a professional dancer and 'competed' with him. Despite her old age, the woman's flexibility was unmatchable.
After outdancing the young man with very fast leg moves, she went ahead and challenged another. At this point, one begins to wonder what kind of energy she possesses.
What amazed most people about the woman's display was that she seemed really confident and in control as shown by her hand gesture.
Many people who reacted to the video online said the old woman was indeed good at what she does.
