Can this ever happen in Naija: Bull dog owner fined £600 after failing to pick up dog mess

A Bull dog owner has been fined £600 after failing to clean up after his pet.

Adam Michael received a fine of £100 and has been ordered to pay costs of £500 after a dog under his control fouled at Summerleaze Downs.

Magistrates in Bodmin, who heard the case in Mr Michael’s absence, also ordered him to pay a £20 victim surcharge.

Welcoming the sentence, Allan Hampshire, head of Public Protection and Business Support at Cornwall Council, said: “We are committed to ensuring people enjoy their local environment, free from the nuisance and health risks often caused by dog fouling. General litter bins and dog waste bins are, therefore, provided where dog mess can be disposed.

“Most dog owners are responsible and clear up after their dog but there is a small minority who leave this offensive type of litter on our streets. It is to these we will issue fixed penalty notices which, if unpaid, will result in legal proceedings.”

“The issue of dog fouling and irresponsible dog ownership is one that concerns many residents of Cornwall. This fine sends a clear message to the minority of irresponsible dog owners that if you don’t clear up after your dog, the courts will fine you accordingly."

But my question is, can this ever happen in naija because people dey even drop shits for road?
