Bbnaija Laycon: I drank garri with toilet water

Garri been savings life’s since the 80s- Bbnaija Laycon shares hilarious tales of his hungry days

In a hilarious throwback, Laycon, the beloved BBNaija 2020 champ and musical sensation, took to social media to share a stomach-growling memory from his university days. Brace yourselves for a tale of epic hunger games!

Picture this: Laycon, now a distinguished master’s degree holder from the University of Portsmouth, UK, once roamed the halls of the University of Lagos (UNILAG) as a hungry undergraduate. Flashback to 2013, a year when hunger became his arch-nemesis.

In a deserted Shodeinde hostel wing, Laycon found himself alone, abandoned by his mates, and facing a hunger so intense it could rival a marathon runner’s appetite. With no sugar in sight and only the humblest of Garri to sustain him, Laycon faced a dilemma: how to transform this dry staple into a meal fit for survival.

In a stroke of desperation, he turned to the nearest source of liquid sustenance: the toilet tap. Yes, you heard that right. Laycon, in a moment of pure ingenuity (or sheer madness), decided to baptize his Garri in toilet water. The horror!

As the Garri soaked up the unsavory liquid, Laycon’s eyes welled up—not with tears of joy, but with water escaping from the depths of his soul. This, dear friends, was the lowest of lows. “I wasn’t just hungry,” Laycon confessed, “I was STARVING.”

And so, the legend of Laycon and his toilet water Garri lives on—a cautionary tale of hunger, resilience, and the lengths one will go to satisfy a rumbling stomach. So, the next time you reach for that snack, remember Laycon’s plight, and be grateful for the culinary luxuries at your fingertips.
