Cassava can be used or processed for many things, one of which is CASSAVA FLAKES popularly known as "GARRI"
It can also be processed into fufu and also abacha.
Trying to know the process of how it's been done, but the production officers told me that they were done with the the major process of the production. So I'll have to come again earlier than the time came.

Yes. I also heard that it has more than what we can ever imagine. Talk of the used of Starch. This is a liquid-like form use in strengthen our clothes of different types and form. I could remember a Groom wearing a native wear on his wedding day and it all in a stretch form with the Starch. This is one advantage of the cassava fluid or cassava water. Thanks for letting us know more about your visitation @joebuddy

You're welcome sir, I actually thought it was a rumor that starch for clothing is made from Cassava!
