Are you an ajepako or an ajebutter? You might think you know the answer to that age-old question, but these 11 quizzes will tell you where on the spectrum you truly fall.
Are you an ajepako or an ajebutter? While many Nigerians like to pretend like they are the former, they are really the latter. This quiz will separate the posers from the real deal. If you can get more than 9 over 13, you are a true ajepako.
Growing up in Nigeria, there were a couple of insults that hit us way too hard. In retrospect, most of them didn’t even make any damn sense, but that didn’t stop them from making us cry.
Here are 15 of the most popular:
1. “Water and garri make eba for your wedding day.”
What’s wrong with having eba on my wedding day?
2. “You mess akpu fly gate.”
Sorry to that akpu.
3. “You dey craze, you dey mad, you dey gbongbolo cigar.”
What the hell did this even mean?
4. “2 kuli kuli attack your village, nobody escape.“
Na the village sabi.
5. “The finest girl for your village, na monkey dey toast am.“
Monkeys cannot have taste again?
6. “You bombastic element.”
Huh?
7. “Radio without battery.”
In 2020, this actually sounds like a compliment.
8. “The strongest man for your village, na hot eba kill am.“
Nobody is bigger than choking, abeg.
9. “Unbreakable chin chin.”
OK…
10. “The tallest man for your village dey use ladder climb maggi.“
That sounds like his own personal problem.
11. “Y has a long tail and two branches.”
Ok. This one was annoying.
12. “American dusting powder.”
At least I’m American.
13. “The richest man for your village dey use shovel drink garri.“
Maybe he just has a big appetite na.
14. “Unflushable toilet.”
This one used to pain small sha.
15. “Your scatter scatter teeth like Rambo bullet.”
Are you an ajebutter or not? Well, if you’ve gone through life blissfully unaware of its harshness, then you probably are. Now, we want to know just how high you rank on that ajebutter scale, using your food preferences as a (very accurate) measure.
If you grew up an ajepako, then you’ll relate with this list on an almost spiritual level, but if you didn’t, you’ll go through it wondering what the hell we are talking about.
1. This was your unofficial car:
“Driven” with either your hand or a stick.
2. Your parents got called Mummy and Daddy [Your first name].
Instead of Mr and Mrs [Your Last Name].
3. Making your kite out of polythene bags and broom sticks.
Stop forming, you did it.
4. Writing your name on paper and putting it into your biro.
No money to be replacing stolen biro up and down, abeg.
5. Playing the greatest childhood game ever:
