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.
