My Dog " Buhari" Went Missing After My Freedom - Chinakwe by outknow: 8:29pm On Aug 19, 2016 |
He did not envisage what befell him penultimate Saturday, after coming back to his house in Sango-Ota area of Ogun State. Joe Fortemose Chinakwe, 40, a trader, said he was relaxing with his family when one of his neighbours from Niger Republic accosted him and demanded why he named his pet dog ‘Buhari’. Before he knew what was happening, friends of the foreigner also burst into his house and were threatening to deal with him if he failed to give a reasonable explanation. At this stage, some neighbours intervened and they all ended up at Sango-Ota police station where he was detained for two days before being transferred to the state Police headquarters at Eleweran in handcuff and chain. He was let off the third day after the swift intervention of both the Serikin Hausa and President-General of non-indigenes in the state. The embattled trader from Okwuzu in Aniocha Local government Area of Delta State said he was traumatized by the incident and still feels so bad especially, when he noticed that his ‘lovely dog, Buhari’, has disappeared mysteriously after he regained freedom. The father of two bared his mind to our Crime Editor, Emma Nnadozie at Sango-Ota. Excerpts: “I am Joe Fortemose Chinakwe from Okwuzu in Aniocha L.G.A, Delta state. I trade on second hand clothes popularly known as Okrika. I have a dog for the past one year. I named the dog Bully after buying it because it is very strong and moves fast. I have been living here since 2001. I reside in a place called Petere in Sango here. I love the dog so much that’s why I renamed it Buhari.” Why did you choose the name Buhari I named it Buhari because I found out that the dog is strong. After buying the dog, I named it Bully because of the way it behaved. I decided to change it to Buhari because Buhari, being a military man, the same time, coming back for the second time as a civilian President, he stands on his word. That is how my dog stands on his actions. So, I love the name so much and as such decided to give it to my dog. I was very surprised how a foreigner who lives around here came and said his father’s name was Alhaji Buhari. I have no business with and he went ahead to tell the police. They came to me that night and I was arrested. Which day was that? That was on Saturday at exactly 8,30pm. They got me arrested and our neighbours pleaded on my behalf but they insisted on taking me to the station. People were questioning the policeman why I should be arrested over such a trivial issue and gave examples of dogs in the vicinity that bear names of influential and powerful people like Obama, Clinton etc but, the policeman decided to take law into his hand and arrested me. Even my senior brother has a dog named Obama. One young man called Sunday was also arrested for questioning the police man who was later identified as Sergeant Musa, attached to Sango Police station. When we got to the station, he told me to bring the dog along. I agreed and went to bring the dog. Before I could get home, the Northern community in our area ganged up and killed my dog. They did? Yes, they killed the dog and I am still searching for the dog. I can forgive anything but that dog in particular, I cannot take it lightly because it is what secures me and I loved it so much. Are you sure you are not the one that killed your dog? No, I left my dog in the house alive and went with the policeman to Sango Police station What happened at the Police station? They intimidated me and I told them that it is my right to name my dog whatever I wished. My former dog bore the same name with me. Unfortunately, a car killed it. I called it Iroko because Iroko is also my name. I love strong dogs and that’s why I decided to buy this one and named it Bully before changing it to Buhari. After intimidating me that very night, they locked me up in a cell with criminals. I stayed and slept there on Saturday and Sunday. My wife, a pregnant woman with my baby on her back, came to see me with food because I had not taken my dinner when they arrested me but, they stopped her from giving me food. What baffled me much is that the policeman said that the Igbos have fowl brain. I asked him why he said such about the Igbo community when he should only be referring to me and as such, it is not a tribal problem. He said he had been handling Igbo cases and that they are foolish and have fowl brains and, that I would rot in jail. He said I should watch. I was surprised when they took me to the Divisional Police Officer, instead of listening attentively to me; he directed that they should throw me into the cell. On Monday morning, my case was transferred. The case was moved to Eleweran. After much interrogation, they chained me and my colleague who came to see me and put us in the van in handcuffs. We all went to Eleweran. When we got there, many policemen were not happy with them for bringing us there. The CP came on Tuesday with the Serikin Hausa and the President of non-Indigenes and other prominent people. We were told not to take it seriously because we are one Nigeria. I was told to forget it all. I was released. How come you boldly wrote Buhari on both the sides of the dog? The dog is a hero and I did it. I shaved his hairs and wrote it. Did you do it to spite the President? No. no. no. everybody knows that Mr President is a hero. It is not easy to be a military man and rule a civilian government. Everyone can attest to how many times this man has attempted to become the civilian president but because he is a man that has vision, he made it at long last. . In fact, he is a man that inspires people. He is a role model. Are you comfortable with the situation of things in the country now? Yes, he is fighting corruption. Not that I am comfortable with the things happening in the country now but I like the war against corruption. The only problem is that we, the less privileged ones, find it difficult to eat. As he is fighting corruption, he should remember the less privileged. The guy from Niger, what does he do? He works in a public toilet. My dog stays in my parking store, he does not move around. He ensures my security. How did he know you call your dog Buhari? He said that someone told him and he came around and saw it. A friend of my mine named Peter gave that dog to me. I am not happy I lost that dog. The Northerners in my area came together and killed my dog. So, after all said and done at Eleweran, did they apologize to you? Yes, they did but it was obvious to me that it did not come from their heart of hearts. One of them even claimed he went to my house that morning to apologize to my wife Are you still living in the same area? Yes Do you feel threatened by what happened to you? If I am financially buoyant, I would have left the area for them because it is as if they are occupying the whole area, and a word of threat has been dropped already and they said that the country belongs to them. I am still shocked because Nigeria is in trouble. Can you imagine somebody from Niger Republic, a foreigner telling me that my land belongs to him? How do you feel about this ugly development as a Nigerian and a human being? With this situation, I believe that a Nigerian should have rights. Nobody should rise up and intimidate one for no reason especially, when he has no one to speak for him. No advocate for that person. And since Nigeria is still bearing the name, Nigeria, and I’m a Nigerian, it is my country too and that is all. http://biafrasay.com/p/322567/my-dog-quot-buhari-quot-went-missing-after-my-freedom-chinak |

For the Igbos who still believe in one Nigeria, I hope its now clear that even a foreigner has more rights than them in this sham of a country called one Nigeria.

cheruv: Some of our people are foolish. An Igbo man is thrown in jail by a non Nigerian, someone from Niger Republic and most probably a Muslim for exercising his constitutional right to name his Dog by any name he so wishes. He is persecuted for being Igbo because those who held him are Northerners. My fellow Igbos, 'one Nigeria' is a myth. You are treated according to your tribe and who is in control 6 Likes |

This man is lying, his story does not add up: First, he said he bought the dog, then he said his friend gave it to him. He called the dog Buhari and shaved the dogs hairs and wrote Buhari on it, in order to equate Buhari to the dog! Otherwise, he already knows the dogs name and the dog will learn its own name but in order to tell all and sundry at his "parking business" - another lie because he said he deals in Okrika clothes - he abused the dog, removing its hairs and writing Buhari on it...that is the logic. Everyone now seeing the dog sitting down at his business as claimed, now see a Buhari dog! In fact, I would have to agree that he is playing the usual game of the SEasterners who rather than consider the ramifications of their insensitive words and actions, do not and later then around and cry for a pity party. No doubt, this man is lying and I do not believe it either! For 6 years, you did not give your dog GEJ as name? You did not give your Abidjan run away hero "Ojukwu" as name? He is lying and while he may have gotten of so far, he should better relocate back to his place where many bigot like his ilk will welcome him. |

IGBO TRADER WHO NAMED HIS PET DOG "BUHARI" RE-ARRESTED. The Ogun State Police Command yesterday, said it had rearrested Mr. Joe Chinakwe, who named his pet dog Buhari, noting that the suspect would be arraigned in court on Monday. It also stated that Chinakwe, who was earlier released a few days ago, was picked up again based on its belief that the suspect’s action was capable of provoking an ethnoreligious crisis. Saturday Vanguard had exclusively reported the three-day detention and subsequent release of the 30-year old after the intervention of the Serkin Hausa and President-General of non-indigenes in the state. He was taken into custody after one of his neighbours, who was later found out to be a Nigerien complained that the dog was named after his father, Alhaji Buhari. It was learned that the prompt intervention of the elders made the complainant to withdraw the case at Sango-Ota Division. Police sources had earlier told Vanguard that upon his release, the father of two, who hails from Ukwunzu in Aniocha North Local Government Area of Delta State and the complainant were made to sign an undertaking not to cause any breach of peace. In the light of these, the suspect’s arrest yesterday opened another page on the matter that had aroused public interest. However, the state’s Public Relations Officer, Mr. Abimbola Oyeyemi, told newsmen that Chinakwe was rearrested yesterday to prevent the state from being plunged into crisis, adding that the complainant and his sympathisers had threatened to kill the suspect. He further stated that the suspect was being held at the Criminal Investigation Department of the command, noting that the arrest was done to save Chinakwe’s life. In addition, the Police mouthpiece said the suspect, had confessed that he named his pet dog Buhari and had the name written on the body of the dog. His words: “The man is here with us. He is at the Criminal Investigation Department. The charge will be prepared here and he will be arraigned at Sango Magistrate Court on Monday. “He is going to court on Monday because what he did was highly provocative. It can cause an ethnic and religious crisis. We have to be proactive, we cannot fold our arms and allow the state to be plunged into crisis. “In fact, the arrest was made to save the suspect’s life because the complainant and his group have threatened to kill him if he comes back and this may trigger violence”. Further investigation by Vanguard showed that the Police had not recovered the dog which may likely serve as evidence. Chinakwe was arrested last Saturday after one of his neighbours complained that he named the dog after his father, Alhaji Buhari.

Some of our Nigerian police are the most stupid sets of human beings. Is it that the Nicer guy and Delta guy bear some grudges before? How can the Niger guy knew Chinakwe was trying to mock his father by naming his dog Buhari? Did Chinakwe ever knew that the Niger guy dad's name was Buhari. I just don't understand. And for your information, he said he named the dog after the president and not after anybody's dad. so case closed. Unless you want to tell me that he is being indirectly prosecuted for naming the dog after the president and not after the dad's name as they want us to believe. |
