Some people think that the only way to make Afritad spicy is by adding hot peppers while others insist that it should be eaten with vinegar. It is up to the individual person to decide if Nigerian chicken Afritad is spicy or not because it’s all in the taste buds of the eater.

In Nigeria, this dish is most often eaten with nkwobi (a type of meatball) or egusi soup (which contains ground melon seeds).
