In the video that has since generated loads of concern, Hilda admitted that she eats dog meat while persuading Enioluwa to try it but he declined.

Several reactions have trailed the video.

A social media commentator, Nnamdi Abana has opined that Hilda Baci might not be recognized by Guinness World Record over her viral dog-eating controversy.

He wrote: "Hilda Bassi, the Nigerian record-breaking celebrity Chef will most likely lose this Guinness Award over the viral dog-eating controversy. This singular incident may mar her success story as animal rights activists are already putting up a fight against her action."

She should have been more circumspect with her actions and exuberance till she becomes the recipient of the highly sought-after recognition. May God help her."

Other activists including renowned animal rights activist and President of My Dog & I group, Jackie Idimogu have berated chef Hilda Baci for eating dog meat.

Idimogu said, “Members of My Dog & I group wore their shirts to go and support Hilda, dogs were present at the cookathon to support Hilda. I know that there were about two or three dogs because when my group members went there they made sure to take pictures and videos with every dog there.
