Dambe is considered one of the most difficult traditional Nigerian games. As the players require a lot of strength and practice to play it.
Two players come in a face-off (in a sand-filled circle) and have one of their fists wrapped with a rope. Now, whenever a player steps out of the circle – they are immediately disqualified.
Dambe is really popular in Nigeria and the government is doing its best to preserve the tradition. To do so, there have been many events organized that engage people and create awareness among the youth about their cultural roots.
