Lagos LG boss bars residents from all-night street carnival over insecurity
Surah Animashaun, Chairman, Epe LG, Lagos State, says all-night street carnivals would not be allowed across the council area, as a result of insecurity.
Ms Animashaun said in an interview on Friday in Lagos that all events regarding street carnivals should end by 10:00 p.m.
The chairman called on all the council legislators, community and religious leaders to help sensitise and inform their followers and residents on the development.
“The local government has resolved that there shall be no all night carnivals in the ancient community, as a result of the security situation.
“To this end, all youth carnivals should end by 10:00 p.m. unfailingly. Failure to comply with this Executive order, the Local Government would not hesitate to take action against any violator of this order.
“Please help publicise this order to the hearing of the youths and the public planning to organise street carnivals that all events should end by 10:00 p.m,” she said.
