A Nigerian little boy whose family just relocated to the United Kingdom saw snow for the first time and called it garri.
A video which was posted on Twitter by a user identified as @bk1omoolusho, captured the beautiful moment.
A little boy was seen standing in front of a glass window, pointing at something that was outside.
Upon looking closely, his father who was making the video understood that the little boy was thrilled at the sight of snow.
In trying to identify the strange white substance covering many surfaces outside, he linked it to the only closely related thing he knew about.
Give this boy garri please
He related it to garri. He pointed at it and called it garri several times.
His father was disturbed by the fact that his child could not differentiate the two substances, tried to correct him repeatedly.
The boy didn’t seem to agree with his father. No matter how many times he was corrected, he repeated “garri”.
Garri is one of the staple foods in Nigeria that cuts across all tribes. It is made from processed cassava tuber. Usually, it is taken as a cereal or made as eba.
