I also remember playing "Kilo n leje". It goes like this: Ki lon leje, leje leje Eniyan leje, leje leje Okuta n leje, iro nla Isu n leje, iro nla______ and so on. If u miss it u will carry every other person on your back for an agreed distance. We also played Horse Race. You choose a partner, he carries u on his/her back and u race with others. We play no be small  |

Chess. I had a friend who was very good and was representing Nigeria, so he got me into the game, and I improved over the years. Still play the game till now. Thank God my father bought a small chess board which I stole from his room, took it to school and got playing the game with my friends in school. Connect4 My cousins came from UK and they brought this game, became very good with it. I have not met anyone who can beat me easily on it. |

Wonderful memories of Nigeria indeed. Abeg no do make I begin dey yearn to move back to Nigeria and relieve my childhood. One could say that the epileptic electricity in Nigeria had a positive outcome. Otherwise, we would have been stuck watching Television instead of engaging in the outdoors.
