Jaime Huff · Answer 1

The correct answer is:

The elaborate feast shows the importance of kinship and community bonds.

Explanation:

In the first place the great fest is offered by Mbanta, a respectful elder of the community who wants to show respect and honor to Okonkwo who is named as guardian of the old ways. The elaborate feast was offered to the community, in order to highlight okonkwo's desires to defend the village according to his values regarding the religious beliefs and values.

In the second place, it is possible to appreciate how Mbanta and Okonkwo understand and agree about "the bond of kinship" when they both think about the importance of the familiar relationships and that the most important for the community should be to defend their territory, people, culture and beliefs. Contrary to what they had already seen with the youngest generations.
