Panic In Lagos Court As ‘Strange’ Snake Appears To Magistrate

There was panic at Ejigbo Magistrates’ court as the new Magistrate, Mr Akeem A. Fashola officially resumed work after his recent transfer by the Lagos  Judiciary, Lagoas State, western Nigeria.  A snake was found in the chamber which caused pandemonium.

The incident happened on Monday after the court opened and Fashola was about to begin proceedings.

A few minutes after Fashola resumed and sat in the chamber, a green snake appeared from nowhere in the chamber which forced both the Magistrate and court officials to flee.

The prosecutor, Femi Adeleye, and security men attached to the court searched for the snake and eventually killed it before normalcy could be restored. 

How the snake gained entrance into the court chamber was a mystery to the court officials because the former Magistrate, Mr Peter Nwaka, who was transferred to Apapa court had moved out his personal belongings from the chamber without any incident.
