Suspected hoodlums on Thursday invaded the Ogun State House of Assembly and made away with its mace, police have said.
The office of the Speaker Olakunle Oluomo was also attacked, it was gathered.
Security operatives have placed the area on restricted access.
Spokesman for the Ogun State Police Command Abimbola Oyeyemi said the coat of the arms has been recovered while the mace is still missing.
“The hoodlums broke into the assembly through the ceiling and removed the official mace of the house. That is why the commissioner of police has to go there for an on-the-spot assessment,” he told the news media.
