Taking to TikTok to share her present with her online community, Lady Popolampo showed a nicely packaged parcel she received from her beau.

The parcel she displayed contained a mobile device, which she claimed was an iPhone.

Despite receiving the gift with excitement, the Ghanaian woman still complained that it arrived late, saying she had expected it on Valentine's Day itself.

"But for some reason, I would not have received this gift. I was rather expecting this on Friday and he's now sending it," she said.

However, after opening the parcel, Lady Popolampo had an unpleasant surprise. The iPhone she thought she had received turned out to be a used one, cutting her excitement short.

She consequently called out the sender of the gift in the caption of the video sighted on her TikTok page.

"Kofi didn’t try at all aah how could you?" she wrote on the caption.

Last year, Lady Popolampo appeared on the popular reality TV show Date Rush to look for love, where she was paired with a man.

It's unclear if the Valentine's Day parcel she received was sent by the man she was paired with on the Date Rush show, which airs on TV3 on Sundays, or if it came from a potential suitor.
