This report is hilarious. No offense to dog lovers. But according to a report by
Sunnewsonline, a dog that died last week got Service of songs, condolence register, seven-gun salute for animals, and an Army Band that played at its funeral...lol. Find the report below...
Last Saturday, November 29, Oshifila Street, Computer Village, Ikeja,
Lagos State, was agog, as a dead dog, a male Alsatian, popularly known
as Dr. Papilo in its lifetime, was given a befitting burial by its
owner. A day before the burial, a service of songs was held for the dog at Cannan Hotel, Ikeja.
At the burial, there was plenty to eat and drink, just as guests were
thoroughly entertained by the Nigerian Army Band. A detachment of
mobile policemen at the event also gave the deceased dog a seven-gun
salute.
Many sympathisers and guests showered accolades on the dog, paying glowing tributes to the animal in the condolence register.
Dog-owners, military personnel, police officers, veterinary doctors
and many others thronged the venue of the ceremony, which commenced at
11am that Saturday. Many passers-by abandoned their initial plans and
made a detour to Oshifila Street to witness the unbelievable funeral.
The street and many parts of Ikeja, the capital of Lagos, came to a
standstill for some hours. Many could not believe that it was a dog that
was being buried. But the owner insisted that Papilo was more than a
dog, describing the canine, as a special breed.
Immediately after its death, a condolence register was opened for the
dog in front of Cannan Hotel, where Papilo has served, as a security
guard for 10 years.
Some of the tributes in the condolence register read: Papilo, you were great, You will remain forever in our memory, We miss you Papilo, Sleep well, What a brave dog!
The owner of the dog, Prince Keneth Edet Ani, who serves with the
Nigerian Army in Ikeja, told the reporter that his affection for his
late dog was unconditional.
Papilo’s remains were interred in a four-feet grave and decorated
with roses. The grave is beside the hotel where the dog served till its
demise.
Ani described the dog, as his business partner, first child and a
friend that travelled with him across the country. He said the dog was
an intelligent soldier and a security expert that fought a good fight
before its departure. He said he could not reward the dog enough for all
it did for him in securing his business and protecting his family for
years.

ReplyDeleteI'm surprised many people are talking like this!!! We are talking about something that has a SOUL, the dog was 15 years old before his death, he lived with the owner for 10 good years! Imagine a boys of 10 years old who lived with you all his life, he's already part of you, it is what I CAN DO also! U can't understand until U are on the shoes!
ReplyDelete@gr8akin
