• Nigerians love sex. We like to act like we don’t but Mama Nkechi who lives next door has 12 children. But the most hilarious thing about Nigerians and sex is the many ways we’ve learned to describe it without using the word ‘sex’.

    Knacks

    This one is Nigerians’ favourite.

    Mekwe

    What does this even really mean?

    Kpansh

    We have a theory about the origin of this one.

    Polash

    Bet you’ve never heard this one before.

    Straff

    Anyone who went to uni in Nigeria knows this one.

    Yarnsh

    Apparently, this doesn’t mean just bum bum.

    Konji

    We all know this one sha…”konji na bastard”

    Smash

    Smash what exactly?

    Kpekus

    This one will always sound funny to us.

    Frap

    This one reminds us of  ‘frapas’.

    Bone

    When I was small I thought this meant just ‘vex’.

    Shag

    Secondary school students used to feel smart using this word to replace sex.

    Did we leave anyone out?
