Misconception about Garri Although some people erroneously think that the consumption of garri can affect vision, however there has been no medical proof to substantiate this statement. Also the argument that garri is predominantly consumed in the poor households is not true. Cassava, the root from which garri is produced, is rich in fiber, copper and magnesium.

Earning money is not an easy task. To now release such hard-earned cash to the hands of unscrupulous elements parading frivolous e-commerce platforms can be nothing but extremely painful.

I was discussing
