Lagos State Government Shuts Down Popular Nightclub, Quilox

Popular nightclub, Quilox has been shut down by Lagos state government due to noise pollution.

The Lagos State government, through its Environmental Protection Agency, closed  down the club on Saturday over non-compliance to LASEPA’s directive and organising events without obtaining a sound control permit.

Confirming the seal-off exercise, LASEPA General Manager, Dr. Dolapo Fasawe, made it known that the measure became necessary following several distress calls with video evidence (s) received from concerned neighbors.

“To avert a situation like this, we recently held a stakeholder’s parley with the Owners/ Chief Executive Officers of nightclubs in the state to address the issue of noise pollution during the festive period.

“The states in its magnanimity, compassionately increased the decibels to accommodate leisure/hospitality business interest”.
