Within 2016 and November 2019 I drank garri 5 times but within Nov 2019 and Yesterday evening I have soaked garri more than 20 times when I started feeling garri aroma in any other food I attempted to eat. Now one devil is telling me not to drink it anymore. I will rather boil lot drinking water, make it cool and put it in freezer for garri soaking.

We have been drinking Garri even before Ojukwu thought of fighting a civil war.
We have always had rats run around our houses before Flora Shaw agreed to date Lord Lugard.
People have been dying from ailments even before the Israelites knew of a promise land.

So why should we bothered now?

Please drink garri if you can, especially if there is coconut and toothpaste nearby.

Because the fluoride in the toothpaste kills the Lassa virus and the oil in coconut creates a non-permeable layer on the stomach lining making it immune to gastro-intestinal attacks.

My people, I am a living testimony.
Ever since I started drinking garri with Aquafresh toothpaste, all sicknesses are scared of me.

Lollllllll you are sick ... u dey burst ma head

Offpoint:
I can take anything from anybody, but one thing I can't take from anyone is trying to stop me from drinking garri...


I prefer World War III break out, than to stop drinking garri...
in fact it's better the earth is hit with an asteroid the size of earth moon than to stop garri.

If Lassa kill 100, lack of garri will kill millions.

Garri is bae
Garri is life
Garri is our constitutional right

What manner of talk is this?
Kuku tell Nigerians not to drink water then.
Since I was born in the village now in town, drinking 'garri' has been our delight.instead of you carrying out further research and how Nigerians can benefit from such venture,you are looking for a quick fix and your conclusion is very rare in medical circle.

Really, I don't think Nigerians can stop garrison(its our fast food).
I still drank garri with akara this morning
We can only be more hygiene (and this can only be done after buying, na only God know how many rats don play for the garri for store)
Stopping garri is like attempting mass murder of the populace.
