He ate anything he was served as meat unknown to him was the local chicken gizzard meant for the elders. now he was asked to provide a full live chicken as fine.

The elders don't have taste. When the laps are there...

You just cannot cut corners when it comes to customs and tradition.

The elders should just eat the chicken neck...since the gizzard yaff crossed the road

Based on tradition, it's actually meant for the eldest person in the house.
And the chicken head, for the first son.
The chicken nyash, for the first daughter in the house.
The ukwu (hips) for the wife (who cooks the meal)

But really, all these sounds funny.

When the head, gizzard, nyash..i prefer to throw them away especially that gizzard. It can be very smelly even when you fry it!

The elders Kwa. So at least two adults will share one tiny piece of meat and be feeling fly based on say na them old pass??

Lmao!

What am I doing with those when the wings are readily available...

Let us work together Nigeria would be great.

He should biko provide it...next time claim you're not hungry when in the village

Who served him the meal?

Was the person not aware of the tradition?

If he can afford it, he should provide it.

lolz.... You try... Which year are you? ..stay blessed

So they still do this?

The one I know that's still very serious is cow waist.
It's strictly for the ùmùada.
Don't ever go near that else u and them will put leg inside one trouser

Weird traditions.
Nothing bad as long as they don't dehumanize anybody.

It's not really that serious. Mostly done in family setting where the dad is old school and eating chicken isn't a common thing

U will see this mainly in village setting drama depicting the lifestyles of old
