Amazing thread.

For some reason, this thread makes me sad. We had such prospects as a country, what went wrong?

Nice thread explorers keep it up. This thread is amazing. Nigeria would have been great if we had put tribalism and religious differences aside. There was once a country cry

Explorers:
Growing up: Do you remember eating this? Share your experience.

We call it esunsun(Dont no the English), they fly around in the night during rainy season and they're attracted to fluorescent bulbs, halogen lamps and so on. We capture them using brooms, we put them in bowl/bucket of water and fry with salt, pepper etc.

Ate it today, delicious....

Delicious termites...

I remember how they invaded our house way bAck... I joined my sisters and mum as they struggled to catch with a basin under the fluorescent light.

Took some to nursery school the next day. Some of my mates were like "hmmmmm... wat's that? What are you eating?" Then... "lemme see..." then... "gimme na, gimme na!..." grin
