Politics › Lawmakers Reject Bill To Ban Consumption Of Dog Meat In Akwa Ibom by Antoeni(op): 12:03pm On Dec 04, 2025
A bill seeking to criminalise dog meat consumption in Akwa Ibom State has suffered a significant setback, as 25 out of the 26 members failed to support the motion.

LEADERSHIP checks revealed that dog meat is a popular delicacy, mostly consumed with palm wine by most people in Akwa Ibom and neighbouring Cross River States.

In major towns, cities, and villages, such delicacies laced with periwinkle and scented leaves are familiar sights at roadside spots, including vendors balancing pots of dog meat on their heads for willing customers and pedestrian patrons.

However, the House of Assembly member representing Etinan State Constituency, Hon. Uduak Ekpoufot, argued that it was in bad taste and primitive habits to brutally kill dogs, primarily used as pets and for security purposes, for consumption.

The motion presented before the House during Wednesday’s plenary session, requesting the discontinuation of the illicit consumption and sale of dog meat, was unanimously rejected by the lawmakers, who stopped it from scaling through the first.

The bill failed to scale through the floor of the Assembly after it received no seconder during plenary.

Ekpoufot had raised strong concerns over the inhumane slaughter of dogs, the unhygienic conditions involved, and the serious public-health risks associated with dog-meat consumption.

He argued that, “The methods used to kill dogs were cruel, often involving strangulation, blunt-force trauma, or repeated blows, leading to severe animal suffering before eventual death of the animal.”

The lawmaker further warned that poorly processed dog meat exposes consumers to dangerous pathogens, such as rabies, salmonella, and trichinella, as well as other parasites, stressing that the practice has been banned in several countries due to safety concerns.

But despite the presentation, the motion failed to progress as it did not receive a seconder — a mandatory requirement under House rules.

In the absence of any lawmaker to second the motion, the Speaker, Elder Udeme Otong, declared it rejected, resulting in its automatic collapse.

Today, history was made at the Nigeria Senate, Rt.G. Christopher Musa was screened jettisoning sentiment and tribal interest.

Himself came fully prepared, and made some very crucial points, that I believe if given the needed support, insecurity will in no distance time become a thing of the past.

We commend Mr President on this appointment, it's not late if he can as well reconsider another Nigerian as our minister of POWER, one whose understanding of the sector is superb.

Difference as Chief of Defence Staff and Minister of Defence

1. As CDS:

He was the highest-ranking military officer, but he reported to a political chain.

He had no authority over budgets, procurement, or policy - all of which were controlled by political actors who often had competing agendas.

He had to operate within a compromised system, rife with interference, moles, and weak command structures.

Success depended on approvals from people with political motives, not on merit or operational logic.

2. As Minister of Defence:

He is now the political head of the Ministry, giving him power to set policies, budgets, procurement priorities, and strategic direction.

He can choose his team, restructure command, and remove political obstacles that previously held him back.

He has direct access to the President, who can enforce compliance and back him fully something he never had as CDS.

His mandate is broader and deeper, allowing him to implement reforms rather than just advise.

3. The Facts You Must Understand:

A CDS can lead troops and operations but cannot fix systemic failures that are political in nature.

A Defence Minister with a competent military mind can change the system itself, creating an environment where operational success becomes possible.

Nigeria’s armed forces were crippled by weak leadership, divided command, and political meddling - none of which were his fault as CDS.

So, this is not a movie, and this is not a repeat of past failures. The difference is authority, autonomy, and systemic control. Give him the freedom, resources, and backing, and he can succeed where others could only report failures.

In short: His past “limitations” were structural, not personal. His current role gives him the tools to fix what was broken - if the political will allows it.

Nigeria is watching. The country demands results, not excuses. 🇳🇬

General Christopher Musa should hold the dual roles of both Defence Minister as well as the National Security Adviser, NSA.....due to his background in the Intelligence Corps.

Tinubu needs to receive more letters of resignation from the small minister and the NSA as well.
The same KPIs that apply to Badaru also affect Mutawalle and Ribadu.
The new CDS ,CDI, IGP and DG DSS aren’t stars either.
I don’t want to blindly believe this isn’t scapegoating of Badaru.
I hope Gen. Musa becomes the Minister of Defence, or, in the worst case, the NSA.
The Ministry of Defence should be handled by a retired military man, and the ONSA should be led by a retired military man, or a retired DSS/NIA personnel, or a retired police officer experienced in intelligence. We are joking in naija

Britain, and other countries only exist because they resisted the Islamic horde wherever they encountered it, over a thousand years. It's written all over the Qur'an, that we're the Kāfir, and that we're to be erased, so why should I feel any pity? Why should I feel anything other than revulsion for the people outside chanting "Death to America" and waving fucking Palestine flags?
