Op lemme school y'all a little bit. I stayed with grandpa and grandpa was a chief in my place, there I got to know the tradition and culture of my forefathers the more.

Here it is.

Kola is not eating for fun of it or because of how good it tastes or how crunchy it sounds in the mouth, kola is used to say a word of prayer to the ancestors whenever a visitor comes visiting before offering It to your visitor, giving a kola to your visitor means u wish him/her well and wants them to live a long healthy life.

That's why a typical traditional igboman will first of all pray with a kola and says he that brings kola brings life many use it to pray to their chi every morning before saying a word to their family and friends..

Kola is spiritual that's why kola has different types and shapes, there are some certain kolas that has three splits other has four splits and the splits determines the occasion it is used for.

Kola is also use In settling dispute, if two persons has a long lingering issues, the matter will be deliberated by the kingsmen in the present of their high chief or igwe, when these two persons are reconciled, they will offer each other a kola, which signifies, peace and forgiveness.

It goes on and on, but some persons has gotten addicted to eating kola thereby abusing it indiscriminately in reckless abandon. They eat kola like they are eating candy, that is actually a habit most people developed over time, but originally, kola isn't meant to be eating like that.

As my father would say Onye wetere oji, wetere ndu. Which means He who brings kolanut, brings life.
Safe to say, among other things, it signifies life in Igbo land.

There’s also the tradition of breaking the kolanut into a certain amount, which signifies something good.
