Lagos State Govt. Call Your Strip Clubs To Order by asadokie: 12:19pm On Sep 05, 2011
It is no longer news that strip clubs are numerous in Lagos state. Sometime back, the state govt. shut down some of these clubs only to re-open them (probably after them "settling" who knows). And they seem to have come back with a mission to consolidate their ventures through public advertisement.

One of such clubs situated somewhere off-Allen avenue displays a well illuminated billboard at night (btw 8p.m. and 5a.m.). The bill board contains info about the club and displays nude women posing suggestively (i.e. giving the public a feel of whats obtainable in the club).

This is certainly offensive (at least to some people). For goodness sakes, minors pass by at these times and it could be psychologically disturbing. Other than minors, not all adults appreciate such and so could prove very offensive to such people.

To the best of my knowledge, such display constitutes public obscenity.

For those of us that are knowledgeable on the laws of the land, are there no laws barring such? If there are, why are these guys allowed to violate them?

If there are nairalanders in government, please, we need to get these things off our roads. Patronizing strip clubs is certainly a private thing, as such the clubs shouldn’t be allowed to disturb others with such offensive displays.

If we don’t nip this in the bud, Allen avenue and its likes will soon be filled with such unbecoming displays in the nearest future. We certainly don't need that.

LASG please do something!

I support the OP's call for regulation.
If the entrepreneurs cannot self-regulate then they will be mandated by law to review and conform their practices within a narrow band od tolerance in the interest of the majority's need for sanity and moral space.
