The Lagos State Government has sealed the All Christians Gathering Ministry in Surulere due to noise pollution complaints from residents. The church, located at No. 1, Ishola Street, off Clegg, Surulere, was shut down following an investigation that confirmed it was in violation of environmental regulations. Commissioner for the Environment and Water Resources, Tokunbo Wahab, announced the closure on his X account, stating that the church will remain closed until further notice. Wahab emphasized that the government will not tolerate environmental violations that disrupt the peace and well-being of residents, and that all institutions must comply with environmental regulations.
The closure followed a complaint by a resident, identified as DAVERY (@BigDavery), who reported persistent noise from the church. The investigation confirmed that the church's activities violated environmental regulations and constituted a nuisance to the community. Wahab warned that all religious institutions and businesses must comply with environmental laws or face enforcement action.
