“You’ll be prosecuted for ‘crimes’ committed by your dog” – Osun government Lament
Osun State Government has cautioned dog owners in the state to ensure their canines are tamed or they will face prosecution for its ”crimes’.
The Commissioner for Agriculture and Food Security, Tola Faseru issued the warning, while meeting with dog breeders, owners and veterinary outfits.
The directive follows a recent unfortunate incident where dogs attacked and killed a baby in the Halleluyah Estate area of Osogbo in August.
It was gathered that during the attack, the mother of the five month old baby girl was also injured by the fierce looking dogs.
Faseru had stated during the meeting that the Osun government would not condone dogs unleashing terror on residents and any owner whose dog is found culpable would be arrested and prosecuted.
He said;
“Henceforth, dog owners will face necessary disciplinary action in line with the dictates of the law if any of their dogs is found culpable.
“The rate at which unlicensed dogs roam the streets aimlessly is unfortunate. It is now compulsory for all veterinary outfits to ensure that they are registered with the State government.”
The commissioner also revealed that the State government had put in place plans to ensure that all dogs must get an anti-rabies vaccination certificate.
“The certificates must be duly signed by a certified veterinarian,” he added.
