I wonder how the snails survived the trip.

She is lucky she was not made to pay destruction fees. grin

Imagine someone being charged $700 in destruction fees for importing 5 cartons of Indomie. Those useless customs officers in Atlanta gave her the option of re-exporting the indomie back to Nigeria, or paying the destruction fees.

She quietly abandoned the indomie for them and did not pick their calls again.

Tell me why someone will carry live snails all the way from Nigeria to US?

Best decision abeg

If the snails were prepared my way, even the meningitis will be dead in a couple of seconds during the course of preparation.

The US authorities like to exaggerate the danger of African Land snails. The main issue with the snails is that they are an invasive species. When released into a new habitat they can wreck havoc on ecosystems. They eat everything and multiply rapidly. They're not that dangerous. The "meningitis" thing is nothing but a scare tactic, but it's very effective.
Still trying to understand the havoc part...

You don't know what you're talking about, some of these snails can harbor parasites that cause severe illness and even death. Please do your research

Wrong.

They're not only invasive. They carry deadly diseases like schistosomiasis which results in thousands of deaths in Africa.

These people and lies shaaaa a.

How come all of us for naija never get the meningitis?

Because we may have natural immunity aka, herd immunity built up over time and established in our populations which they may not have.
Be informed.

The Spanish and Portuguese adventures to the Americas in the dark ages wiped away hundreds of communities and thousands of native tribesmen who had no natural immunity to the diseases those Europeans carried. It still happens today and Covid has alerted the world to the grave dangers of cross border infections particularly from non native species of animals.

Every sensible government is on alert.

Then half of Benin would have been wiped out by now. Every meat is safe or unsafe depending on how you process and cook it.
