Pandemonium as snake appears to magistrate in Lagos court
Some scary news here! A magistrate and court officials at Ejigbo Magistrates’ court Lagos yesterday were shocked beyond wits after a mysterious snake appeared at the chambers shortly before court session began.
This actually happened on the first day the new Magistrate, Mr Akeem A. Fashola officially resumed work after his recent transfer by the Lagos Judiciary, Lagos State.
According to PM news, “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.”

Crazy stuff! 37 year-old Herbert Chavez from Calamba City in the Philippines has undergone 23 surgeries in 18 years to look like his hero, Superman. He fell in love with the TV programme at age 5.
He’s spent over £4,200 on nose jobs, skin-whitening, liposuction, jaw realignment, pec implants, bum implants and fillers to look like Superman.
Doctors refused to do permanent abdominal implant for him after discovering he’s been injecting himself with a controversial and illegal filler product into his body.
Herbert is loving his new self and has no regrets whatsoever.
‘What is there for me to regret? Everything that has happened in my life has been positive and because of Superman. When my body says it can not endure it anymore or when my doctor says that my body can not handle it because of age, then I will stop.’ He said.
May July be an oasis of comfort and Grace. Happy New Month
