Two-year-old lion 'Cub' is said to be used as a security guard in the house where it was discovered.
The Head of Lagos State Task Force on Environmental and Special Offences Unit, Mr. Yinka Egbeyemi, said the cub will be “tranquilised” on Monday.
He said the discovery was made at House No. 229, Muri Okunola Street, in the highbrow Victoria Island area of the state.
The king of the jungle, reportedly kept by an Indian, was said to have been discovered by residents, who petitioned the state government.
Egbeyemi told The PUNCH that his men had been keeping tab on the house since Friday.
He noted that the animal would be tranquilised on Monday (tomorrow) and taken to the zoo.
