Stop Calling it “Garri”, Check Out What it is Rightly Called.

There are many items in the world today whose real names have been wrongly used by many. Many persons in Nigeria, have created and popularized names of several items and products; which are totally different from their original name.

Regarding this article, we shall be looking at 5 different items or local foods whose real names have been wrongly used by many in Nigeria. See them below.

1.    “Garri” (Granulated cassava or cassava granules).

The granulated cassava is no doubt, one of the most common food in Nigeria and Africa at large. It is commonly called “garri”, but for the sake of the right communication and usage, its real name is granulated cassava or cassava granules.

2.    “Moi-Moi” (bean pudding).

Bean pudding is a common meal that is usually called “moi-moi” in the local Nigerian word usage.

3.    “Zobo” (Hibiscus tea).

Zobo is the native name given to the African drink made from the Roselle plant. The proper name for it; is Hibiscus tea or Roselle plant tea.

4.    “Akara” (Bean buns)

Akara is another popular African meal that is made with beans. Its proper English name is bean buns.

5.    Kuli -Kuli (Peanut bars).

Kuli- Kuli is another popular meal or local snack that is commonly made in the northern part of Nigeria. It can be eaten alone or can be combined with beverages, its real name is peanut bars.

BiafIntel:
How is that possible if not for the reason that the person that you are seeing in this picture is not the Buhari you all know, but Yusuf Abubakar from Niger Republic. Just look at how fresh this Buhari look. This a man of 89 years and very sick?
Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is always right. Shame to all of you dumb nigerians for not seeing how fulani that migrated all the way from futa jalon is playing you all in your ancestral land.
