i remember when i was 8. i was in the gutter for almost three hours trying to catch dose young tadpoles. people where passing and were like nna kedu ife i na eme(what are you doing)

I don laff die for here eh!
But seriously tho, reading all these things here, it is very obvious that I never had a childhood.
Our playground was the balcony and the only games played was football when there was no light and Sega Mega when there is light. Dem no born you well make you even as much as go outside to the staircase without wearing a footwear. Your nyash go tell you
Annoyingly, I won't even qualify as "ajebutter".

Nairalaaandiiiii!!!! A place to be. No tension whatsoever.
I think There should be Kobo land for kids too

God una own na small. Imagine me confirm Barrack Boy wey dem born in d 90's. My play too much, i tank God say i even fit read & write with d kind of rough play wey we play during our tym. If i start mention, u go vex with me cos na btw d gud nd d bad play all join together. Na small x2 gals abi na person papa, we thief tins wel wel 4ppu farm na d one's they dry unda sun. *Chai* i thank God 4my life o.

Motin motin, Boju boju, dad and mum's play. Building of bird house with sand. I was almost bitten by snake 'cos I like dipping my hands into any hole. All in the name of looking for rabbit. Playing football in the rain and urinating on myself while playing. Oush....So many nasty and dangerous things.

nna erh wetin man do full ground chai. i no fit laugh. as e dey rain erh dat smell wey sand dey smell if rain touch am chei e dey sweet pass eba and nsala soup oo. na im mk me go dey chop sand almost everytime. my immediate elder bros don suffer for me, as we dey sleep i go just wan know hw person tk dey die go close im nose cm hol am very tight. Thank God say i no kill my bros

koko (swollen head) na constant thing on my face then. we de carry our friend papa ileya ram go fight, wen d ram headed my guy p.enis by mistake, d guy collapse mehn

i also swallow coins, and my ''I TOO KNOW'' nearly killed me wen i go jump inside swimming pool wey go cover the tallest man head. if not for d life savers, no doubt say i go die that day

remembered when i hang on a bus, and i wan drop wen d bus still de move, i broke my teeth that day and received serious beating afterwards

Funny but I remember
I did dad and mum acting that led me to my first kiss

I remember playing baseball with stone and sticks there by smashing d windows in my neigbourhood there was no single un broken window in my neighbourhood
Played wat we call sighting we will pick stone and try breaking security bulbs from a distance.

I remember playing NEPA man and one day I picked concrete nail becos it looks like a screwdriver and climbed a window like my ladder and tried fiddling with a spoit lamp holder I got d shock of my life dat day infact the current threw me to d other end of the room AC effect

As in they r somany cos I was a rough kid then even recently I was looking at some my unconvetional childhood picks n I laff cos I looked so rough.

What I always did as a child was to spent much time on NL and this is where it landed me.

Started driving my Dad's car all around Surulere at age 12. My parents never knew I could drive until I hit someone and it became a serious police case.

After watchin kung-fu movies we all trooped out and start a full scale kung-fu war....which always ended in tears. Used to do police nd thief with my cousins but one person had no water pistol so he decided to use his dad's syringe.....which later ended up in somone's head after a collision.

police and thief

OP said 'dangerous things we did as kids' so many off topic posts hear tho hilarious keep 'em coming dudes

I remembr d days of "ISHAWURU" and "AYANMANTAGA", we had no t.v den, so i use 2 go 2 my neihbour's ouse upstairs 2 watch nd each time i'm comn bk downstairs,its alwayaz dark nd den,i pictur wut i av watchd nd gets scared,i den run lik smtn else nd injur my sef.

The wrestling matches mehn...When we were subdued there's this 'charging' stuff we did..think we learnt that from Hulk Hogan looool.

I'm not ajekpako persè cos i have uneducated aunts that are hilarious and crack us up like crazy

but I remembered roller skating indoor and flying down the stairs and broke my 4 front canines , ouch!

Hanging upside down like a bat on our back gate doing some acrobatics when my hand slipped. Men! God truely exist. I landed with my face

Yeah! I swam the shores of the almighty River Niger at age 11, not that I know how to swim ooooo . Lost a classmate in a similar escapade at Nkisi River in Osha

We used to smoke paper cigarrette: we would tear off a portion of our notebook, fold it like a cuban cigar, light it from one end and start inhaling the smoke. At times the paper will burn so fast and hurt our mouth and face.

My parents would have died of high bp if they knew. I guess God is on our side

you guys have said it all.
but, i still need to keep the game going, although am not all that dangerous when i was a kid,i did the one of using your big thump to pierce someone's a**hole and playing in the rain, when it is raining,acting husband and wife,acting jetlee and jacky chain. it was all fun ;Di which i could rotate the hand of the clock backward.

Ajekpakos??

Its Ajepako (A-jẹ-pá-kó).

Those World Wrestling Federation moves:

Remember applying the figure 4 leg lock popularized by Buddy Rogers and Ric Flair, or the spike piledriver we used to attempt. If only we knew how dangerous those moves were (Owen Hart nearly paralyzed Stonecold Steve Austin with a botched piledriver in 1997).

How about O-ver-sa-bi?
