As the spirit of love fills the air, it's not just President Ramaphosa who's spreading joy. 

The Ndlovu Youth Choir, who rose to fame after auditioning for the popular TV show “America's Got Talent” in 2019, has also gotten into the Valentine's Day spirit with a beautiful Isicathamiya rendition of “Hello My Baby” by Ladysmith Black Mambazo.

The choir's harmonious voices blend perfectly, creating a soulful and romantic performance that celebrates love.

Another video has captured the hearts of many. A romantic student at the North-West University (NWU) campus decided to surprise his girlfriend with a bouquet - but not just anywhere. He chose to do it in the middle of a lecture, with their classmates completely focused on the lecture and not their romantic gesture.

The video shows the two lovebirds share a tender hug and kiss, completely absorbed in the moment, while their fellow students continue to take notes and listen to the lecturer.
