Why not just do the right thing on your own!.
Your logic is warped!. So because others are armed robbers, you too should be one abi.

So because there are mosques that makes loud calls to prayer and joints that makes noise pollution as marketing, then your church must also be at the forefront of constituting public nuisance!

I'm a Christian and would gladly support any law that prohibits "public disturbance"...but it should spread across all religions and sectors. If you are to punish the people who disturb in the church,
1.you should also punish the imams who disturbed our sleep in the morning.
2. You should also punish the beer parlor joints that blast noise called songs into our ear drums up till 2:00AM in the morning
3. Companies that in the name of marketing, blast songs and what have you disturbing public peace.

When this is done, I'll gladly tell my pastor to reduce the volume of his microphone and put our church speakers inside the church

Wonderful development. I don call Lagos state tire for those on my street. How can I work 6 days a week and I can't rest on Sundays because of these crazy noisemakers? God ain't that far to listen.

They should be jailed. Our present-day attitude as christians demeans rather than honour the name of the Lord Jesus the Christ. The use of public-address system turned outwards with several services and vigils every week have turned us into a bunch of nuisance.
What more, the attitude runs against the teachings of the Lord.

Before anyone crucifies me, i have the grace of running a
church for God but i take time not to disturb the neighbourhood. We use
electronics instruments for vigil only once in a month but occasionally four and hardly more than twice in a year.
Except for publicity stunt, am at pains to see the reason for everyday use of these intruments.
That we have the right for freedom of worship accords us no right whatsoever to infringe on the rights of others with impunity.

Oh you busy waiting for others to reduce their decibels before you and your pastors follow suit. Your comments reek of ignorance because the judge who may try your case will not accept your excuse.

Please you don't need to be against Christians to say the truth. Say it the way it should. Many churches and their members including their pastors are disgusting

If you read the post well you wouldn't have written this. They were not arrested bcus they prayed in the church. You can not turn a residential area to a church, mosque or hotel. if they want to pray, they should go to their church and scream out loud instead of disturbing the peace of the neighbours

After a long day at work, i am on my way home and the danfo drivers will kill me with traffic noise and needless horning.

At my home bus stop, the audio CD dealer has speakers that will kill me with unbeliveable decibels of vulgar music.

Up my street, the European football viewing centre lad has even more massive speakers with Martin Tyler screaming me to death!

Down my street, a rowdy all night vigil is commencing earnestly in the ambitious new age pentecostal church who's prayer warriors are intent on killing me with Jericho wailing!!

I endure all night with that renowned Nigerian doggedness...

I wake up in the morning and the muslim muezzin is on elephantine speakers eager to finish me off with wailings of calls to prayer!!!

I don't die, no, I am Nigerian. I get to the office groggy, foul and of the realisation that I too am making noise.

Nigeria is a noisy place. See how much tribal, bigotted, hardline, hate noise we make on Nairaland and all of our media space!

Lagos government, I appreciate your minimal attempt to bring sanity and dignity to a seemingly uncontrollable zone.

Wrong.

As a christian you are expected to obey the law of Caesar even if others do not. So you and your pastors are deliberate law breakers because others are breaking the law. You all still need to grow spiritually.

Is true they are disturbing the neighbourhood, but is not up to court issue at least the beer parlours and the disc hawkers are doing worst than that and nobody to challenge them. Any God will see them through, because Paul and Silas voice out to God and miracle happen.
