Cholera came, you told us not to drink dirty water; not to eat dirty food or eat anyhow. You told us to drink clean water, eat clean and well prepared food.

WE OBEYED.

Bird flu came, you told us to ensure that we prepare and cook our birds (chicken) very well, fry them wella and keep them healthy. Hmmmm, whoever has the time for all these procedures and protocols.....but still

WE OBEYED

Ebola came, you lectured us on how to stay away from bat (that sweet and delicious meat); and, other bush allowances (sorry, Bush meat). We struggled; we mumbled; we grumbled; we complained terribly; but, at the end, we reluctantly caved in........

WE OBEYED

Now, Lassa fever, you said we should stay away from rats (those little rodents). Honestly, we have nothing against this instruction. We welcomed it. Who wants those little nuisance jumping up and down in the house anyway? We avoided them like a plaque. (but wait oh, rats are delicious delicacies so don't get it twisted. Just stay away from Okon Calabar)

Where we now have issues is when you said we should stay away from Garri (God bless that food;saving students since 9BC)and cold water. Are you kidding us right now?! Who does that? Do you know what is means to walk or work in the hot sunny day? Do you have any idea the satisfaction one derives from garri and cold water on a good day (especially with fried fish, sugar, salt, milk, etc)? What is the relationship between Lassa rats and garri with cold water?

At this stage, we think you have gone a bit too far! Why? See rat is rat; garri and cold water is not to be mentioned here.

So spare us this lecture, it will not work. Garri and cold water, saving Nigerians and/or students since 9BC.

GARRI, God bless that food!

You were asked to stay off Garri for our good except you process it yourself.

If you go to where some people process garri, you will not like to ever drink it again.

And may I add that most villagers who process garri are not patient to fry the garri properly. Instead they fry a little and spread it under the sun for it to dry. While under the sun on the ground rodent normally have a field's day on it.

Ahahahaha

I know this, sire. I am a professional in that field myself. (garri Akure) . But be that as it may, garri and cold water are like 6 and 7
