How snake chased Ondo lawmaker away during plenary

A drama played out at the Ondo State House of Assembly on Thursday in south-west Nigeria.

This followed the appearance of a snake which fell from the roof of the Assembly while lawmakers were holding plenary.

The development forced the members to scamper to safety, leaving Thursday’s proceeding disrupted.

As a result of this, legislative activities had been suspended in the Assembly until the complex was renovated.
