A talking chief is like the official spokesman for the High and low ranking chiefs and the entire village. They are also called orators, but they are a type of chief, nonetheless. I don't like using the term 'talking chief'. I prefer orator. What they say must be approved by the high chief; hence, they consult with each other before an event or meeting. Edit: Revisiting here.
