Famous Nollywood comedian, Bishop Umoh, aka Okon, has issued words of defence for his fellow Akwa Ibom indigene, Chef Hilda Baci, who has been receiving backlashes after she admitted she eats dog meat.
Recall that animal rights activist and President of My Dog & I group, Jackie Idimogu, berated chef Hilda for eating dog meat, insisting it was cruelty against animals.
Reacting via his social media page, the comedian clarified that Akwa Ibom people don’t eat pet dogs as being insinuated, adding that they only eat wild dogs.
He warned the president of My Dog & I group against inciting the West against Hilda Baci, who is still waiting to be certified by the Guinness World Record as holder of the longest cooking marathon by an individual.
He wrote, “Who’s this one sef? OK madam Cl*tina, before you begin inciting western hoe on Hilda, you should know that there is no proof that the meat on the table is dog meat.
“Secondly, even if it is dog meat, Akwa Ibomites and Cross Riverians eat dog meat, and there is nothing wrong with it. They don’t eat pet dogs, but wild dogs.”
Baci broke a World record of 87 hours, 40 minutes after cooking for 100 hours and 40 minutes.
However, Guinness Word Records are yet to recognize her as the new world breaker officially.
