Eko Hot Blog reports that in an escalated effort to combat noise pollution, the Lagos State Environmental Protection Agency (LASEPA) has implemented stringent new measures.
This time, authorities are leaving no room for leniency towards establishments that flout environmental regulations.
“Repeated warnings have fallen on deaf ears,” a LASEPA official lamented, justifying the tougher stance.
Severe Penalties for Persistent Offenders Establishments like Red Pepper Bites Limited and Lacibo Restaurant & Lounge now face severe consequences for non-compliance.
In addition to temporary closures, they could be slapped with hefty fines and potential license revocations.
“We’re done with mere slaps on the wrist,” Environment Commissioner Tokunbo Wahab asserted.
Zero-Tolerance Approach in Residential Areas The new measures prioritize residential areas, where noise pollution poses a significant disturbance to public well-being.
Lakeem Suites, Krusty Butter Bakery & Pastries, and Addie Christian Ministry are among those facing strict scrutiny.
“Residents deserve peace and quiet in their own homes,” Wahab emphasized.
