As the new grocery in Nigeria, Garri deserves more respect


Garri

Estimated reading time: 2 minutes

Oh, Garri! The new grocery, an unsung hero that has rescued millions of lives across Nigeria and beyond. We all know it’s not the tastiest treat out there, but hey, it never shies away from a little help from its friends ā€“ sugar, milk, groundnuts, or beans.

With these sidekicks, Garri’s mission is to make life better for both itself and its consumers.

Now, let’s talk about Garri’s preference ā€“ it’s a bit of a diva.

The cold water is its best friend, making it more desirable and easing the burden on its unsuspecting victim.

But when you take it “plain” with cold water, it’s like a rollercoaster of emotions ā€“ sadness and happiness hitting you simultaneously. Talk about a whirlwind experience!

Some folks detest it in its “soaked form”, but hey, it’s not the cause of their predicament, right?

Garri remains a faithful servant, always at the beck and call of every seemingly poor person. Like a selfless martyr, it gives its life freely to all, available in every household in Nigeria, without complaints or failings.

Now, using Garri to make eba? Some might call that luxury, but Garri wants no part of it. It’s happy being soaked and swelled to the brim, serving those with just a pinch of it.

In this scorching era of Tinubu (you know what I mean), Garri continues to play its role as a life savior.

But wait, despite its tireless efforts, some people have the audacity to blame it for their woes! They claim it dims their vision or that it’s bad when consumed in abundance.

Well, did Garri force itself on them? No! It’s there to help, not to be taken for granted.

Garri knows it’s common and readily available, but it has sworn an unbreakable commitment to serve those who seek it diligently. It doesn’t demand praise or adoration; it’s just here to lend a hand (and a mouthful).

So, let’s take a moment to show some appreciation for the “wonderful” works of Garri in people’s lives. Raise a glass (of cold water and Garri) and salute this tasteless savior!

Even you, dear readers, share your own stories in the comment section. Remember, don’t be ungrateful to Garri ā€“ it’s become a friend you can always count on!
