Nigerian man arrested for naming his dog 'Buhari' in Ogun state

Joe Fortemose Chinakwe has been arrested for naming his dog 'Buhari' by the police in Ogun state.

The 30-year-old trader who lives at  No 10, Omikunle Street, Sango-Ota, Ogun State was reportedly arrested last weekend, after one of his neighbors of Northern extraction complained bitterly that he named his dog after his father, Alhaji Buhari.

Vanguard stated that the complainant reported the case at Sango Police Station, last Saturday, after which the trader was arrested and detained.

However, the publication gathered that efforts by the police to recover the dog, which they intended using as evidence failed following a clever move by the suspect.

The trader, said to be trading in female wears at a popular market in Sango, allegedly directed his friends secretly to kill the dog and possibly eat the meat in order to avoid being implicated.

It was gathered that consistent appeals by his friends and relations for the police to grant him bail failed as the complainant and his kinsmen reportedly threatened to kill the trader if he was released on bail.
