The night Nigeria won 96 Olympics. We celebrated and danced across Nigeria till day break. The only night I got to sleep out as a boy because nobody slept in the house. Cable Point Asaba was lit. We trekked from Garage to Ogbogono market and came back. That was the highest fun of my life.


Another one is how Governorship candidates for early 90s election campaigned with helicopters. At Asaba, the showdown was between Ibru and Opia. These two heavyweights threw money and flyers from their helicopters and made us pursue them to Government field and one other school respectively.


Another thing that people born after 2003 missed was the nudist nature of movies back then. Hardly will there be any movie where you won't see breast. From Commado to total recall and so many others. Movies back then shows how corrupt the 80s were.

If you tell any 2000s kids that if you finish university education in Nigeria jobs and some big corporations will come inside campuses to find you for employment and even had to beg your VC or rector for ur employment. Corpers used to be very respected people in Nigeria then. Smh

Lazy Africans. Always looking for succour at the wrong time, in anything. Comtemporary white nations are bolstering themselves with important developments and innovations—AI, automobile, technology, and so on. We dey here, nostalgia and superstition dey suffer for our hand.
Look, Oraykon, I'm not a clown. I'm only looking out for us as the black race. We can't keep living this way. This self-inflicted repression must stop somehow, and I believe sensitization is a great way to begin, thus my earlier outburst/comment. Look at the Whites, they literally dictate our lives. We have to rise and be able to contribute immensely to humanity too. Any 10 minutes we spend living in the past, like hounding on old nostalgic memories, is a 10 minutes spent by the west to bolster improvements on NLP, DL, ML, Warfare, Spacecraft, Health, and so on...

I was born pre-2000, enjoyed many fond memories as such, but I realize everything we did inherently as a group is now either repressing or being dictated by other race, while they grow in leaps. They didn't have such development as they do now. But we, in contrast, have nothing to show for it.
It hurts me that you choose to see it this way. We have to help ourselves, strengthen the black race.

What have you done to change the narrative?

eepeepook:
1. CRT TV static screens.
2. Colour bars when TV stations resume.
3. Waiting till 4 p.m. to watch anything.
4. National anthem when TV stations close.
5. Military rule.
6. Rotary dial telephones.
7. Sending physical letters as a medium of communication.

Twale for you bros, this line at the bolded speak volume and B.I.G predicted about this world trade which was blown by the terrorists Osama I think around 2001

Nope that was the first bombing. There was a bombing before the 9/11 crash.

Pilolo!

I chop you. Nail game.

Country game.

The one in a circle where we have all chosen a country and cut a portion of the circle where someone calls out the name of any of the countries chosen meanwhile everyone is supposed to run away so as not to be caught at the same time they are supposed to listen out for their country so that they can stop others from running away by shouting stop from the center of the circle

Did anyone say Police and Thief/Cowboy and Indians?

Table soccer world cup with jerseys and cup.

Hey! You still remember the guy?

And when you say kabelo we must remember Beavis and Butthead. The people who planted the madness that we see today.

Was an ardent follower of Luther Vandross and Baby face way back. Lots of guys here might not really relate with Baby face too well because he's a calm and reserved personality except for his class and kind of music that gave him way off.I still remember the song "dirty Diana"do you ?? That was the song by MJ to smite Dianna Ross and Luther for snatching away his love throb Diana then.Diana was way too into fine boy Luther though she likes Michael Jackson who was really dying for her..lots of us do not really know about the love life of MJ untill recently. I use to have plat collections of Luther ((call it love ,secret love . Buy me a Rose etc.)untll I gave them all out since( boys are now grand pas now )you almost wanna awoken..my Old school stints my dear,Good morning sis.

Legendary artistes and good music like;

1. Tina Turner - Simply the best. What's love got to do with it.

2. Luther Vandross - Secret Love, Can I take you out tonight.

3. Babyface - Whip Appeal. For the cool in you.......and more

Knockout and firewokrs were used for inter street war between guys then.

You freely hang around with your guys from street to street not like these days internet and phones keep guys indoors and apart.

The economy was more favourable to the ordinary citizens.

The sun and weather wasnt harsh.

The girls were more decent, respectful and not spoilt.

With a little sense or education or carefullness any guy would easily make it in the country.

Siblings eat together from a trail or bowl 😀😀

Around 2010, #100 akara or beans and pap will do you for the rest of the day.

In fact, children of these days really missed.
When life was more lovely.

They missed Messi, CR7, Drogba, Kanu, Okocha, Ronaldinho, Mike Tyson, etc at their Epic.

A lot more!!
