Because it crows non-stop, a rooster has become a court case in Nigeria. Neighbors had sued the owner for noise nuisance. The animal violates the “right to a soothing stroke” and destroys the peace in the neighborhood, it is claimed.
Judge Halima Wali now ruled that the rooster had to be slaughtered on Friday. The local newspaper “Premium Times” reported that the animal in the northern town of Kano had been disturbing residents for weeks. As a result, owner Isyaku Shu’aibu was sued for noise disturbance.
Animals are eaten at Easter
He asked the court to keep the bird alive until Good Friday so that he could eat it with his family at Easter. The judge granted the request, but with conditions. Until then, the rooster is not allowed to roam free or bother the neighbors.
In Austria, roosters and chickens that disturb the neighborhood are always a matter for court. Here, for example, it has been decided that the affected animals must be relocated.
