The meat must be toxic. Especially the gizzard.

That thing is poison.
From Wikipedia:
The marabou stork (Leptoptilos crumenifer) is a large bird in the stork family Ciconiidae. It is sometimes called the "undertaker bird". Like most storks, the marabou is gregarious and a colonial breeder. In the African dry season (when food is more readily available as the pools shrink) it builds a tree nest in which two or three eggs are laid. It is known to be quite ill-tempered. A number of endoparasites have been identified in wild marabous including Cheilospirura, Echinura and Acuaria nematodes, Amoebotaenia sphenoides (Cestoda) and Dicrocoelium hospes (Trematoda).
The marabou stork is a frequent scavenger, and the naked head and neck are adaptations to this livelihood, as it is with the vultures with which the stork often feeds. This large and powerful bird eats mainly carrion, scraps and faeces but will opportunistically eat almost any animal matter it can swallow. As with vultures, marabou storks perform an important natural function by cleaning areas via their ingestion of carrion and waste. Increasingly, marabous have become dependent on human garbage and hundreds of the huge birds can be found around African dumps. Marabous eating human garbage have been seen to devour virtually anything that they can swallow, including shoes and pieces of metal.

I suspect they are not tasty to begin with. the endoparasites could be killed (and converted to a source of protein) by cooking the bird properly!! All Mushrooms are edible! Some Mushroom are only edible ONCE!

The meat should be ok provided you remove the matumbos carefully.

In nature, it is supposed to eat us when we die.

I hope these birds aren't found in Eldoret. I had lunch there about one week ago and that piece of chicken in retrospect looked suspiciously large.
