"What type of life is this? When did this design come into existence? When was it launched and we did not hear about it?" he questioned in the video.

He said that the leaves covering the kenkey dough are medicinal and that using rubber to create that barrier is unhealthy.

He pleaded with them to refrain from using rubber because our ancestors never used it and lived for so many years without it.
