– Joachim Chinakwe Iroko, who was
arraigned and remanded for naming
his dog ‘Buhari’, has spoken out over
the incident
– Iroko also revealed his experience
in prison and the lessons he had
learnt from his arrest and detention
– He further gave a reason he named
his dog after the president and said
he has other dogs with notable
names
Just after his release from prison,
Joachim Chinakwe Iroko, the man who
named his dog Buhari, has revealed that
he does not hate President Muhammadu
Buhari.
He, in fact, said the president was his
mentor and that he had other dogs
named after other prominent leaders of
the world.
Iroko, the man who named his dog
Buhari
Iroko, a 40-year-old native of Delta
state, was arraigned at the Ota
Magistrate’s Court, for conduct likely to
cause breach of peace and remanded in
Ibara Prisons in Abeokuta, Ogun state.
The incident led to serious criticism
against the Nigerian law enforcement
agencies as well as the administration of
President Muhammadu Buhari.
However, the presidency released a
statement on Thursday, August 26, 2016
saying Buhari did not order Iroko’s
arrest over what it termed a laughing
matter.
Vanguard reports that after his release
from prison, Iroko said he had learnt a
lot of lessons. “I am so happy. It is a joy to me. I have missed my family; that was most painful. “Prison is a place to experienced in one’s life. It is like a rehabilitation home: you learn many things there and there are many people you may not have the opportunity to talk to. “But in prison, you will sit down with them and discuss. There are many things you take for granted, but when you go to prison you know there is law. “The only thing I am regretting about my coming to prison is the intimidation from the Hausa community. Going to prison is a golden moment for me,” he said. Continuing, he said: “As a matter of fact, they misunderstood me. I have three dogs: one bears Obama, one bears Joe, an abbreviation of my name. The third is named Buhari. “I named these dogs after my role models. My late dog was named after Nelson Mandela. I don’t just give any name to my dogs. “I give reputable names to my dogs. It is love I have for Buhari; he is my role model. “Buhari is not the President of the North. He is the President of Nigeria. I see no reason why Northerners should intimidate me: Nigeria is one. “I see no reason why they will be intimidating me. It is my right to name my dog any name. “Thank God, I have regained my freedom. The most painful thing is the way they treated my dog. I am not happy that they killed my dog, while I was in detention. “It is my dog, it is my pet. I love my dogs. They have no right to kill my dog. “Nigerians should know that there are other dogs in other areas that bear Jack as name. Why is Buhari so special. It is a name that has been existing for several years.” #Credit - [url=skyevibes.com]Skyevibes.com[/url] |
