Mushin-breed like me can never escape all these during childhood days..

In fact, realizing now that I did all these , make me feel happy from inside that; nobody rob me of my childhood right...

SAY NO TO "OMO-GET-INSIDE"

Let us be sincere with ourselves! I was privileged to be present at an occasion where Prof Wole Soyinka gave speech and made reference to the years he was running in the rain rolling motor cycle's tyre with a stick.

He was trying to convince parents not to deprive their kids of their childhood privileges. He then tasked the audience to swear if they never did such while young. He said most parents of this end time generation never allow their kids but to be caged indoor from Jan to Dec.

What about you, SWEAR

GOOD OLD DAYS

men,even today i still feel like playing table soccer.

Memories: the use of palm canel as pomade; going to sch on bare footed; dilving to catch grass horper in the field; wearing unbottened school uniform to sch; using palm fronts as belt; dismissing ourselves from school before or during brake period; forgetting our sch bags from sch; shooting birds with catapot; trying to work with our two hands instead of our legs; its a nice feelings to recall all that. Then if we could enjoy all our childhood experiences, why can't we enjoy what it takes to be an adult(graduate) why can't our government make provition for job opportunities to we youths ? I hate this cat race type of life the we youths live. May God help us

Anapuao:
Every Nigerian child born at a certain era can relate to the post

Hahaha. Those days in federal government college, we call it RUB AND SHINE!

Buho:
I did all apart from washing my hands and leg instead of bathing before going to school because i have always been a neat boy since i was a kid and i never put garri and sugar in my pocket. Closing the fridge slowly to see when the door goes off... Our fridge na one old fridge but original wey the block water in few hours.

had it been u went to a boarding school where fetching water is by survival of the fittest especially wen u r in the junior class, den u will undastnd wat op meant by washing your hands and leg instead of bathing before going to school

i went to a boarding school and i usually fetch water for bathing in the night and hide it under my bunk. In the morning when they are struggling for water i would jejeli take my bath.

(i)Stoning lizard on the wall
(ii)Grinding biscuit in d nylon to dust then eating it
(iii)Eating Groundnut in its nylon(taste swt sha)
(iv)The Days of condense ice cream,Baba Dudu
(v)Using the Empty Can of insecticide to make water Tap

those days, the water brought by water tankers hardly goings around everyone cos some greed seniors would fetch up to 100litres just 4 dem self. D little one we d juniors fetch and hide under the bunk, the seniors who weren't able 2 get water eventually raid it 4rm under our bunk. It was so horrible

SWG1:


And are u a surgeon today, if not, ur environment didn't do u good.

I can't forget flying carpet with milo tin plastic cover. And playing soccer with counters. Now where.is my Goalie.




including stoning cashew seeds



wat of throwing cards or at a wall to know the cards that will lap like tv to the wall.

lol we even caught praying mantids and disember/amputate it

Hehehehe nice one. I did if not all, 98% of this. But I don't remember mixing that sugar and garri part in my pocket; maybe in a small black/white nylon.
Truely speaking, many children are now missing so much fun. Funny enough, when you look at the list again, you wish you can still try some of them for fun. That Nigeria vs India enhhh, I remember telling my friends and making it even look real (99-0, lion head etc). After all we didn't see india participate in fifa tournaments (Lol).
But it's as if that waving at white birds for white fingers works like magic (Lol).

hehehehehe...u sef gaan...u be ashawo for olden days play play. i did that 'itu swell' wella. guess u did 'tempe-tempe' too? lol...nice1
