Lagos seals Club Quilox over noise pollution

The Lagos State Government has sealed the premises of popular Lagos Club, Club Quilox over noise pollution and environmental infractions.

Nigerian NewsDirect had earlier observed last week Thursday through to Saturday the noise and traffic generated by Club non-stop due to the large influx of people who were trooping into the club for the festivities.

The Lagos State Environmental Protection Agency and the Lagos State Safety Commission, in a joint operation yesterday sealed the Club.

Taking to their X (formerly Twitter) handle on Sunday, LASEPA said the club was sealed for environmental and safety infractions.

Its statement read, “A joint enforcement operation between the Lagos State Environmental Protection Agency and the Lagos State Safety Commission sealed Quilox night club over environmental and safety infractions.

“Recall an earlier press release, where both agencies have warned social centres to ensure that their operations do not affect the safety and wellbeing of other citizens and vowed to sanction any of such erring.

“The agencies also warned the operators of Sol Beach, The Good Beaches, Landmark Beach and other social centres across the state to ensure that adequate considerations are made towards the safety and wellbeing of their neighbours and citizens of the state during the yuletide.”

Earlier on Sunday on its X handle, LASEPA had shared some “Guidelines On Noise Pollution.”

The Lagos State Environmental Update had also revealed on Sunday morning via a video the slow movement of traffic along the road where Quilox club was located.
