Justice R.O. Onunkwo of an Anambra State High Court, today, ordered the arrest of a lawyer during proceedings.

A video of the incident was posted on X by a Lagos-based lawyer, Malachy Odo II via @MalachyOdo1.

The judge accused the unidentified lawyer of being an imposter and asked him to take off his wig and robe.

He then ordered his arrest by security agents.

This led to an altercation as the accused man resisted attempts by security operatives to cuff his hands.
