This made me remember my old days at Ile-Oluji in ondo state. We usually travelled to a village called 'Eyingun' during our school holidays. The Clay pot, was our favourite refrigerator in the Village. Believe me, the water is always cold.

I wonder who or what was drinking/drying up the water ?

God bless my mother. I love her & feel like been with her the remainder of her years. But the cycle of struggle in the modern Nigeria has created a barrier to do that.

Back then, we didn't have and nobody close to me had one, but there was this old man that placed one at his frontage for us school children to drink water from. I used it almost everyday when i passed by.

sometimes, we queue to take water from it.

That baba deserves a special place in Heaven grin

OMG! I'm one them.
Some pot do have small snail (Isawuru) for purification, the snail consume micro organisms that find it way inside.
Snail inside drinking water?

Disgusting!

The fish helped in eating up the phytoplankton; a natural water purification system.
Some used Isawuru ( a local snail), and some used electric fish ( eel) .

All according to commenters.

We had it in my grandpa's house, but it had been dysfunctional by the time I was born.

We used a Nigerian made electric fridge by (Adebowale Electronics?) called Debo fridge.
you are right...some then used electric fish.
Re: Those Who Drank From This Refrigerator Are Legends.. by pacespot(m): 11:20am On Aug 24, 2023
grin I used to drink from that natural refrigerator as a kid in my grandmother kitchen whenever I visited her in village, the water is the best. The rule is that you don't drink directly from the small cup placed on the pot because you are not the only one drinking. The cup is only meant to fetch the water into your own personal cup. The water is most satisfying when you were just coming back from outside after a rigorous time at football pitch grin

Oh my God. Why did you do this to me, poster?
You made me shed tears as I remember grandma. That's the fridge/freezer she used back in the village and we enjoyed chilling our bottled KROLA in it whenever we were lucky to be bought one. KROLA I guess is Coke now or so.
Water from that pot felt like heaven and the only thing next to it back then was rain water.
Beautiful reminiscences.
Thanks so much for this.

I drank from this during service year but I’m not a legend. I stopped when I saw a wall gecko on the inside walls. Fellow corpers did not find it alarming, they said it was just enjoying the coolness and would never take a dive into the water. Never take a dive? But what if it defecated into the water? What guaranty was there that it hadn’t even survived a dive already?
Well, that’s the story of how I’m no legend by clay pot.
