Re: Most Frequently Used Insult In Nigeria by Afam4eva(m): 10:27am On Nov 04, 2011
I think "you dey craze" is the most common curse phrase in Nigeria.

Others are "your papa", "Anuofia", "Ode", "Dopemu", "Mumu(Maga)" etc.

Your papa/mama has to take the lead. It is used by virtually all molue, danfo drivers/conductors/passengers like it is the first sentence they learnt when their respective mothers gave birth to them. Same goes to workers and the likes.
Next should be ODE!!!!, OLOSHI!!!! and EDIOT which so popular in NL that it comes in various spellings but same pronunciation/meaning.
