Hmm garri is the best food

Ol'boy, I just finished a bowl of garri with my children without sugar! This data I'm using is necessary otherwise, I wld'n't hav come across this

Garri and groundnuts are on my food timetable.. Key to avoid lassa fever is not in quitting garri but avoiding contaminated foods

The only poor man food is what they don't want us to drink garri again why now?

Na why una come use davido picture na? I guess the dude is too busy to sue you for royalty

My God is bigger than Lassa fever.

Why can’t Lassa fever avoid us so that we can drink garri instead?

Imposicant

Pls conduct your research properly. How do u expect my dad, sisters and I to survive? There's no joy without drinking garri

My family will not survive. It's just our delicacy

Good advice

Eh, God should just take away lassa fever, but to not drink garri🙄

This would be the true meaning of the saying, 'something must kill a man'

Story story

Was about to eat rice but I decided to take garri to confirm. You're not doing well!

Iffa slap you pple! Ezz u dah will nt drink garri IJN 😏

I’m never taking garri again, like I’m damn serious guys

I still take took gari ijebu few days back with nothing inside sef.

Never!! Living legend.....

Is like you are not serious? 🙄

Avoid ijebu garri or garri from yoruba land to the best of my knowledge but. Good garri comes from Akwa Ibom. They do it with conscience

This research will not work

Something must kill a man.

As if dem no dey drink am also ☺️☺️

Instead of finding a lasting solution to this menace, you're advising Nigerians to stop Garri😂

Biko... I should eat beans and golden morn?

I think we are obliged to rephrase this; 'To avoid possible Lassa fever infection, keep garri out of reach of rodents. If possible, know the source'! Soakis has come to stay!!

Thank God I don't like drinking garri for anything 😯 garri always disgusting whenever I saw it BUT EBA eba EBA eba only God can separate us

Garri that people soak after smoking Indian hemp to reboot their brains🤦🤦

The food in Nigeria that doesn't new advertisement to sell oga check ur spelling

Garri my fav.....how can I survive without that?

Impossible I must drink garri

What kind of nonsense is this now? Is there any data to back this claim up? This is how stupidly Punch keep on spreading falsehood.

My igbo blodas comman c

me that I drank garri last night

Govt should stop all importation of garri

Fire on the mountain

What should we eat now that rice in Nigeria has turned to gold, please stop confusing garri is the hopes of a common man

If I perish, I perish 😒

Is hard na. Garri, gnut and pure water combination can be obtained with like 50 naira. This is how people survive this days on this kind of low budget.

Well for your information,I just drank garri,I tried to eat my beans by itself but the garri kept calling and beckoning and eventually I gave in,I don’t think beans can go without garri.Well Lassa fever,here I’m.

Imagine life without garri I don't think anything can separate me and my local golden morn

What about the one we've bought since last year? 🤔

Is this a joke or sth? In a country where garri in its various derivatives is consumed by millions on a daily basis, you are asking people to stay away from it..... 🤷🏾‍♂️🙈🙈

This one will hard ohhh. Haaaa!!🙆🙆

Don't tell me that. What do you mean😠

What is garri 🤐?

Ooin 🙄

I still drank it last night

you've told us these before. We Don hear nah

Story for the gods.

Baseless!!! I must drink Garri.

I just bought a consignment yesterday. The key to avoiding Lassa is in eradication of the rat vectors, avoid contaminated food not in avoiding gaari, any food can be contaminated.

The garri that have been in the house or the ones in the market yet to be purchased? With the level of hardship and hunger in Nigeria, garri is a must have and must drink. Why this caught my attention is that, since the last time I drank garri I've been feeling ill.

So Nigeria can't even save GARRI pápá 😒

I can only minimise

I don't think Igbo can take this advice seriously 😂

You lie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
