Abstract The high increase in the production of Nigerian home videos especially the ones that have sexual contents have led a number of researchers to conduct studies pertaining to this subject matter. The main objective of this study was to conduct a survey on adolescents’ perception of sexual contents in Nigerian home videos. Survey research method was adopted and copies of questionnaire were used to find out what adolescents think about sexual contents in Nigerian home videos. Students of Redeemers University and Crescent University constituted the sample for this research; a total number of 640 copies of questionnaire were distributed between the two schools. From this research, it was discovered that adolescents consider the sexual contents in Nigerian home videos as being too explicit, this study therefore, recommends that stricter measures should be used by the Nigeria Film and Video Censors Board in censoring movies and sanctioning defaulters; also, parents and guardians should constantly talk to their adolescent children/ward about sex education so they would not be misled by media messages.
