Popular Nigerian Chef, Hilda Baci has stirred strong controversy after she was seen in a video tying out several Akwa Ibom delicacies including a dog meat delicacy.
Recall, that Hilda Baci who hails from Akwa Ibom, recently received international acclaim after she set a new Guinness World Record for cooking non-stop for 100 hours.
Given her international acclaim, some Netizens bashed that she shouldn’t be seen promoting the eating dog meat so that foreigners do not get a wrong impression about Nigerians.

However, others backed Hilda Baci claiming that eating dog meat is no different from eating other animals, despite dogs being popular as pets to humans. They also stressed that it is part of Hilda Baci’s culture in Akwa Ibom to eat dog meat.
A popular dog lover, and president of a non-profit organization also known as “mydogandigroup” also called out Hilda and condemned the practice. Commenting under Hilda’s post, she stated; ”HILDA EATING DOGS!!! ARE DOGLOVERS A JOKE TO YOU!!! Eating dogmeat, eating our furbabies!!!!”

The president of dog lovers should go and sit down. Except she no dey chop chicken or beef. Because chicken and other animals are people’s pets too. Why you go just talk say dog and cat are not for consumption and go ahead to eat other animals? Those animals lives no matter abi?

Not all contents are fit for public circulation no matter how persuasive an influencer is. I think
@DanielRegha was the first to issue a warning on this and I believe that the consequences of this decision will continue to reverberate.

There’s no reason why anyone should eat dog. It’s a known pet to majority of the world. You can get your protein from lamb, goat, cow, fist etc etc etc. Dunno how far you want to go with your new fame but eating dog meat on social media isn’t a good look for global recognition sis
