Lagos state Commissioner for Environment, Mr. Tunji Bello pictured left above disclosed this at the 2015 ministerial press briefing held in Alausa Secretariat, Ikeja yesterday April 29th
“We received over 1, 000 petitions in the year under review. But we have been able to resolve some and some have relocated. We have shut about 24 religious outfits in the last one year because they failed to adhere to the state guidelines on noise pollution.”he said

Funny
They should shut down clubs in residential areas too. Lindaobserve
Good. If you want to worship your God/god. Do it without causing menace. Why the big big speakers and megaphones. Smh
They better be mosques bcos they r the culprits for noise pollution...if they count churches then we shall know that religious discrimination has started!!!
Wow! This is serious.
They just shut down some peoples means of livelihood. But I wonder why we make so much noise as if our God is deaf.

The clubs have soundproof systems in place.Don't be an illiterate.
The churches and mosques were asked to either have a soundproof system or relocate their loudspeakers inward.The government took this decision because residents filed complaints.
Don't be stupid.ALL religious houses were given the circular
Churches inclusive...@ least d mosques have basically fridays...some churches cause noise pollution on a daily...mid week prayers, sunday service, friday revivals and vigils? Etc...habaa
More of these need to be shut down plz despite what religion building it is, as long as the noise that comes out of there becomes outrageous...Supported!
Lol @as if God is deaf.I really never thought about it like that.
Ok. Even the mosques too
This is not fair o, should have given them warning or something

It think all religious buildings should make use of internal speakers instead of external, afterall we all should know d right hour of worship.(for those who worship constantly)

There are loads of things to shut down too; CD?DVD sellers and barbing saloons who play their music so loud.
That's wrong. Mosques pray all through the day every day, especially early morning's and they use horn speakers 🔊. So what are you saying? Churches make noise too basically fridays & Sunday's.
Na lie, they haven't got to my area.
don't see whats wrong with that
Please what about the mosque that wakes one up every morning...pls can they be shut down as well
Dont mind them. They will have only 10 members of congregation meanwhile the speakers are turned outwards disturbing the whole street
So it its only mosque its OK but when church is involve, its religion discrimination.... U are d dumbest fool on earth
Fuck you Aboki, for cursing him like that, you offspring of ishmael,
Exactly I wonder y some people make unnecessary noise $ Makossa dance wen worshipping God,one of d major reason I love $ respect catholics,dey worship God wit respect $ dignity,

Please Lagos State should please come and rescue us from CHurches in Ketu ,Kosofe area ,FIve churches on every street ,every day vigil ,365 days a year. Because of their behavior the value of properties have dropped in around the area.
What about Generator, does it not cause noise pollution too? please, restore light to Lagosians.
Are you that dumb or u can't read? Didn't you see the word ADHERE
Noted
I just wish they'll do the same in my area.
The noises are becoming disturbing.
And there is time for everything.

Am a christian o but i support dis, dere is even a mosque close to me wen dey start Ʊ wuld tink dey re in d same cmpd wit Ʊ, all is well..
Very good. I've bn waiting for a gov to do this. All this warehouse churches that will be preaching peace yet they bring noise. With their megaphones screaming into ones ears. Most of these churches don't even have upto 30 attendants
Well,I hope the number includes Mosques and clubs if not this is total injustices.
Lol @ as if God is deaf, so funny yet so true
Very good move. I wonder why pple shout so much in churches not showing concern for others.But if d go to developed countries d will not praise God in dat manner.
Is all for gud.....#SayNoToNoisePollution
Nice one, I've seen an old couple who developed High Blood Pressure because they couldn't sleep at night in their own duplex because the church beside them always had one night program or the other. One of the sons came to visit with the kids during hols, noticed the trend and dragged the church to court and it stopped. So Insensitive. They should be a Church Road or sth where all the churches should be located.
They don't silly, hence the complaint. Over sabi

Good news, it should be extended to sabongari kano, portharcourt, enugu etc. Boogie says so via nokia n70.
Abeg e get one bokoharam gathering sorry i mean mosque for my area the noise is terrible.
If we allow sentiment tins won't get done,both mosque & church shld adhere & install soundproof. I disagree with Ranchy Osas,Rivers State at 2009 chased all school and churches from GRA, even Salvation Ministries as big as the church was, moved out.
Abeg i need d contact of dis ministry.i get cse wey i wan report
Bona,God increase ur knowledge more for dat comment!
As if Our God is deaf!the Bible says,the Hand of d LORD is not Shortened neither HIS EAR heavy!but our iniquities has seperated us from God.they shld talk more about Salvation,Holiness n Repentance.
who said they have not be warned.

Which part of Abuja do u like? Cos there's hardly noise pollution from churches or mosques here in Abuja, they were warned long ago during El-rufai tenure.
Sharap there! If you so much love stella's blog then what the fuck are you doing here monitoring her comments and digits? Prolly here to hustle for giveaway and other religious readers keep beating your ass to it and you're bitter, Hehe get a life bitch!
That's why I like the jehovahs witnesses. .They don't make noise.decent bunch
Well yes it's ok as long as itss not direct to one religion, if a church is thhey will be served, if a mosque is too they should be served. From what I see I bet it is churches they r referring to. Lagos sef land of wahala...
My area has the highest incidence of noise pollution in Lagos State. The Lagos Homs Estate A.K.A Chief Anthony Enahoro estate at Sogunro in Ogba is surrounded by 4 mosques, and several bar drinking joints. The mosques have external loudspeakers outside. The call to prayer begins daily at 4.30am till 6 am. Monday to Sundays. Sundays are my worst days because u can't get any rest. The Sunday service is aired from 9 am till 2pm via these loudspeakers.
Now to the bar joints, the loud music starts blasting from 6pm in the evening till between 12 midnight and 2 am. Thursdays to Sunday are the peak periods. My health has greatly deteriorated since I moved into this estate and my monthly period has been erratic due to lack of adequate sleep.
To make matters worse , Lagos State did not allow us bring our personal generators for safety reasons neither have they provided us with a generator to power the estate.
Residents have moved into this estate since August 2014. We are appealing to the state Govt, please wipe out the noise pollution. The bar joints and mosques should be given the riot act! Residents have had to call the toll emergency lines on terrible nights when the music is way too loud and no light so u can close ur windows.
Also we ardently pray for a Generator that can power the estate. We bought these apartments from the Govt and they did not come cheap.
We pay our mortgages and we look after the estate well. We all had generators in the places we were living b4 we moved into Lagos Homs.
Electricity is a necessity and not a luxury dear Governor.
Linda, I once emailed u on this issue but u never aired it on ur blog.
I pray for something positive. We wives are not having it easy. We throw away food ever day from the freezer.
Thank you and God bless.
A pained wife, mother.
@Anon 6:42, I believe you live in town. I thought so too, until I went visiting a friend at Nyanya and spent the night there. One woman woke me up as early as 4:30am with gosple songs. She followed it up with a sermon,all along raising her voice over the mic. The Mosque close by took over shortly. Europeans and Arabs have really done great damage with their exploitative religions.
Ouch. They should reduce the noise. Hunger in the land
U r such an idiot, daft and irresponsible 4 calling a mosque Boko Haram gathering. It is u n ur likes that bring trouble 2 d world. Omo ale jati jati
@aboki don't tread on a path u know little to nothing about. Using any sort of dance to praise God is rooted in the Bible. So I'll advise u remain at ur comfort zone
NO RELIGIOUS BODY NOISE POLLUTES THAN THE MOSQUE. I hope mosque are among the 24 shut down
Very good
They need to come to abolaji street in mafoluko, the street is surrounded by 3 mosque, the new compilation 5times a day how can preach the loudest from starting from 530am. When they are praying don't bother trying to get on the phone or watch tv. Please we need the government to come to our aid
"The noises are..." Hian! And na you abuse people pass.
I will substitute your "most" with "all". They're all crooks.
