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 .
According to the security guard
attached to the court ( name withheld )
Fashola officially resumed for work on
Monday and as he entered into the
chamber and sat down , the court
cleaner went into the chamber to do
some cleaning up. While she was
cleaning the chamber, the snake came
out suddenly .
The court is located near the airport
compound which had been over grown
by weeds over the years.
