Suspected thugs have broken into the Igbosere high court in Lagos state, carting away some files.

In a video seen by TheCable, the suspects moved out items from the court.

A young man, who walked out of the court, was seen putting on a wig and gown with a file in his hand.

Some of them made away with court equipment, including desktop computers, laptops, fans, chairs, air conditioners, freezers and many other items.

There are reports that the nearby magistrate’s court in Igbosere was set ablaze but TheCable cannot independently verify this claim.
