Video: 'fufu' Is Killing Africans - Pastor Mensah by temitofa(m): 9:23am On Feb 24, 2017
Pastor Mensah Otabil, the founder of the International Central Gospel Church has claimed that "fufu" is slowly killing Africans.

Fufu, is an African food prepared from cooked cassava alone or cassava and plantain, yam and or cocoyam, is one of the many favourite delicacies across few Africa countries.

However, Pastor Mensah who was speaking at the National Convocation of the 2017 Springboard Roadshow on the need for a change in the attitudes of Africans, said that the process involved in the making of fufu is not hygienic and too stressful.

"Any food that if you have to eat you'll have to punish yourself like this, what's the sense in it? And the annoying thing is when you're pounding, the sweat will be going in and will be mixed, and even in the mortar, there are all kinds of bacteria in the corners, this is an ecosystem for bacteria, 5 years and we are still pounding and people will say, that's what we like."

"It's killing us; because you know Africans we don't know what kills us, the thing is killing us but you say it's a witch, because we never identify objectively the cause of the problem.....Come to think of it, this fufu in this mortar is not sanitized , what impact does it have on our lives? He explained.
