The five goats were arrested because they violated article 101, cap 11 of the laws of Osun State.
According to the Director of Environment Management and Sanitation in the State Waste Management Agency, Mr. Henry Ogunbanwo, the goats were arrested by officers of the agency who stormed the area to inspect the level of compliance of residents of the area to earlier instructions to keep their goats and other pet animals in cage.
Officers of the agency actually provided food for the goats while in detention but the animals did not eat the food well as they were tied down in the detention and denied access to natural food and free movement.
This week Tuesday the 15th of Jan. 2013, the goats were dragged to an Osogbo Magistrate Court along side their owners.The court asked each of the owners to pay a fine of N2,500 to the State government but pardoned one of the owners, Mrs. Adetayo, whose goat died while in custody.
Heeenh! Died in custody ke! As how na???
I'm suspecting some....hmmmm....peppersoup tinz.
If I was the owner of that goat, I would demand for the body of the goat.
Yes o, make I see my goat know say another man nor chop free of charge, all my sweat when I use take rear the goat.
I would request an autopsy,lol.
I doubt if the body of the goat can be brought out. The goat must have said farewell to this world inside some people's pots, maybe used for Ukodo(pepper soup,yam/plantain), goat meat stew, Isi-Ewu or Nkwuobi.
Its so funny to know that goats where actually arrested. Those goats will go down in history as the first Goats ever arrested.
INFO OF THE DAY: Article 101, Cap 11 of the Laws of Osun State.
Article 101, cap 11 of the laws of Osun State prohibits birds and other animals from straying into residential areas.
Take note, in case you live in Osun or are thinking of relocating to Osun State, tie, chain and padlock your pets well so that dey nor go arrest dem.
Stay Sharp,
Warri Girl.
