BattaBox heads onto the streets of Lagos, Nigeria to ask – when and how did you lose your virginity. It’s a question that gives an insight into the person and into society and their approach to sex.
And we came up with some interesting and honest answers, results, and insights into the reason why, when, and how Nigerians lose their virginity.
“I went to his house, and made him a good meal, and after eating, said let’s go to the bedroom, let’s do it small small, don’t pain me abeg,” explains one Lagos girl. “But it was not sweet, it hurt.”
“Definitely it was a good feeling, it was nice, that’s all,” says one Lagos guy.
Many of the Nigerians we asked said they lost their virginity after eighteen years old and even in their twenties. However according to the USAID/DHS, at least 27% of Nigerians first have sex under the age of eighteen. The average ages is between 15-24. Another survey done by Durex in 2012, “Durex’s Face of Global Sex,” found the average age people first have sex in Nigeria is 19 years old.
The age of consent in Nigeria is 18 and the reasons for people losing their virginity in Nigeria are extremely diverse.
Churches and Mosques in Nigeria advocate for abstention and to wait until you find the right person and are married, but it does appear that many Nigerians are not waiting until they are married. But we found a few:
“Ah, yes, I’m still a virgin,” says one young man. “I want to hold it until I get married.”
“I lost my virginity to my oldest sister’s best friend,” explains one Lagos guy. “I was a novice, so I didn’t know anything about sex, so the girl was just teasing me because she knew I was losing my virginity.”
However, there remain serious issues of consent in Nigeria, as we discovered when we asked one girl how she lost her virginity:
“We didn’t plan it,” says one Lagos girl. “It was my boyfriend, but the guy forced me, it was kind of rape.”
In 2015 Durex, the condom maker, polled around the world and found Nigerians to be the most sexually satisfied country in the world, with Nigerians spending not less than 24 minutes having sex.
As you can see from the map above – Nigerians report some of the most exciting sex life’s in the world.

I wasn’t expected it
I lost mine at age 26. Unfortunately I cannot confidently say I f*cked her because she was the one that f*cked me. She opened the condom, put it on my d*ck and carried out the whole act. I just went with the flow. After it ended she was very happy I lost my virginity to her.

I lost my virginity 2 yrs ago after having my 2nd child
I lost my virginity at the age of 16! 10 yrs ago, on the 26th of May 2007. It was a great trauma for me because I was raped my sister’s ex. I hope my trauma heals with time, I just have to put all this behind me… # victim of circumstance
