I’m not permitted to eat this…

We gave it out

Kobojunkie:
I am not concerned about your not eating it yourselves. It is just that you are handing a potential relative of yours out for others to eat though.

ObiaboAdoka:
Are u from Nnewi?

Olumighty123:

So there are lots of giant rats terrorizing our chickens and food store.

Last night, we set trap for them. Unfortunately, this one happens to fall in trap.

One baba has took it for processing, he said it’s a good meat for amala.

Chochovini:
. For your village ba?

■ I see u edited ur post. No p sha. It's a tradition, some people eat lizards, I don't but I won't stop u from eating it

Usmanovic95:
This is not grasscutter please. Below is a picture of the real giant cane rat (grasscutter).

Bluffly:
No, your village. Mumu

VEHINTOLAR:
Olumighty,that guy fvcked up big time ! It's hard to believe anyone could talk so carelessly about himself like that ! You won't believe it,that guy is an old man o ! It's shameful !

Bluffly:
No, your village. Mumu

Olumighty123:
■ Him shame dey shame me, seeing how low he's brought his family lineage, see as dem dey ridicule him culture/custom as a whole.

Kobojunkie:
I didn't ridicule his family lineage or ancestry. It is actually out of respect for it that I asked him why he would offer the animal out to others in the manner that he did.

Kobojunkie:
The issue was not on what you eat but what you give others to eat.

VEHINTOLAR:
How could you talk like this for crying out loud ?! Even if you meant it to be a joke,it was a bad joke,man ! One of your forefathers turned to a rat ? You honestly think that's cool,bro ?! See all sorts of insults and riducules you've now brought on yourself 'cause of your needless urge to shalaye !

illicit:
■ It's not poison. It's cultural, obviously the others don't have the same culture

Justkatty:
una Sha dey get mouth o. See me smiling sheepishly on the road

Kobojunkie:
It isn't cultural. Rather it is blood we are speaking of here. He says he shares ancestry with someone who was known to take that shape that makes them blood to an extent.

illicit:
■ You don't get it. An Ikoyi warrior turned into a giant rat. All Ikoyi descendants made a vow not to kill or consume giant rats. Not his father in particular

Kobojunkie:
I was just puzzled by his action is all.

illicit:
■ No ikoyi person or ondo town person will intentionally eat a pouched rat. It's a taboo, cultural

Kobojunkie:
Again, if an Ikoyi warrior could turn into a giant rat, doesn't that somehow get you to realize that in his genes(blood) possibly lay the ability to do just that?

OP said it was in his ancestry, so am I supposed to doubt OP? Abeg, go argue your case with OP.

Kobojunkie:
GO back and read OP's claim. It is in his ancestry and that is the version I go with.

illicit:
■ Ikoyi people don't eat giant rats, that's all. Ondo town people too. They don't care if you will eat it. They are not extremists.

illicit:
■ So u make ur own culture or u were born into it

Kobojunkie:
Again, go argue your case with OP. I don't know the Ikoyi people nor do I care about their traditions. I only know what OP told of his ancestry.
