Lagos govt seals multiple establishments over noise pollution
The Lagos State Environmental Protection Agency (LASEPA) sealed multiple establishments across Victoria Island, Elegushi Beach, and Lekki Phase 1 on Saturday for noise pollution.
LASEPA made this known in a post on its X handle.
It said the establishments were sealed due to persistent noise pollution and other environmental infractions.
“The affected businesses include Mania Lounge, Voda Beach Club, Meadow Hall School, and others found to have repeatedly flouted environmental regulations despite prior warnings issued by the agency,” the agency said.
LASEPA said the enforcement exercise was part of ongoing efforts to maintain environmental standards and safeguard public health.
“This operation sends a clear message that Lagos State will not condone any activity that disrupts the peace of the community or endangers the well-being of its residents.
“Compliance with environmental laws is mandatory for all, and defaulters will face the full weight of the law,” it said.
LASEPA commended its enforcement team, led by Tunde Ajayi, for their diligence and professionalism in carrying out the operation.
