I have three suggestions in addition to the one above me.

1 - You can also get a megaphone and counter them when dey come with reasons why dey should move elsewhere.

2 - The truth is, the main cause of those preachings is poverty. If you give the preacher 500k or 1m, they will go a start a business and let your family be.

3 - Time when dey normally finish and approach them, pray you meet someone reasonable.


One should work fine
You're 100% correct... The main cause of those preachings is poverty.....someone that has work to do or a business to run won't wake up very early in the morning and start disturbing the peace of other people..

Anambra is notorious for those early morning preachers with their horrible voices .Just like dominique said you need to involve other people in your neighbourhood and the police I am not sure what the law says about public noice in Anambra but I know some states have very strong laws about it.

While you try involving your neighbours ,you need to find better ways to sleep,you can eat fresh cucumbers or drink green tea.Just make yourself comfortable and sleep.If you want to resolve the issue the gangster way when they start their preaching put on your music set and fix a loudspeaker outside and make a louder noise they will get the message .

If his neighbors are like my parents, he'll be labeled an enemy of the word of God.

Greetings everyone. My name is Kris and I reside in Anambra.
There's this growing trend which is affecting myself and my family - Early morning preachers.
These people have made my life a living hell.
Sometimes as early as 4:30am these people wake you up with loudspeakers.
Problem is that sometimes I get back late and sleep late and barely have enough hours to sleep before starting a new day. Sometimes my baby keeps us awake till the early hours of the morning and just when we're about to catch some sleep, they arrive.. Sometimes 3 different groups preach at the same time.
I now have frequent headaches and have developed some form of early morning anxiety (i dread the noise of the megaphone).
Please what do I do? Is this a matter for the police(as I feel they're disturbing public peace) or do I just see a doctor to help me cope with my sleep problems.
Your advice will be appreciated. Thanks

Noise is a general problem in Nigeria that the government needs to tackle wholistically. Its not just the early morning preachers. How about the clubs? The bush bars? The musical CD shops? The herbal shops? The car horns and trailer horns? The speakers from the mosque that makes its own noise? Car radios that played on high volume by transporters and privates? How about the one coming out from your next door neighbour? The church around you doing night vigil?

The whole thing is too much and because our politicians are hypocrites and bunch of failures they dont care. FAshola tried it in Lagos and people felt bad. Nigerians can be so annoying.

Simple equation.. just buy or borrow a shotgun. Just fire a gunshot when they come at night and watch them disperse and never come back again.

I'm sorry for what you're going through, sleep deprivation is no joke and messes with your body system, an issue of public disturbances in an ideal society should be dealt with by the local government but since ours is dysfunctional, I'd advice you to take matters into your hands. You can hold a meeting with other house owners and find a way to employ night guards saddled with the responsibility of chasing them away before they even start, I don't advice violence but don't take it lightly with them and do not let anybody blackmail you with the hackneyed 'Aren't you a christian?' phrase.

You can also take legal actions against them, trust me it works, and a defaulters would face the consequences.

Is it not you people that were threatening hell fire when elrufai banned open street preaching and noice polution from street speakers in kaduna? Why are you now complaining of the same thing. Nigerians and there overdo attitude eh. Preaching inside church is now not enough, you must preach inside bus, on street, inside market etc with megaphones. Barbing saloons and every other shop is just blaring music from giant loudspeakers, is that not madness?

What of me that lives near a mosque? Their prayers start at about 4am. I am used to it jare.

The problem I see here is that you hardly have enough sleep before 4am. Early morning preachers also compound the problem for you.

This ought not to be so. You shouldn't disturb your neighbours all in the name of practising religion

My brother you don’t need advice on this one...
I stay in Anambra as well..
Confront them nicely at first and tell them that they are disturbing the peace of you and your family,if they refuse then just turn on a little 007 movie for them..
Unplug all their wire and push down their speakers..
They always call me Onye okwu ego whenever do that..
Imagine on a Sunday afternoon when I visited my parents to discuss on a quite afternoon,2 of these preachers from different church came with their followers and their clappings and boring songs made me turn on another Universal movie production..
Am sure God himself would closed His eyes to these boring songs..Gosh!!!! I hate those mega phones.

on a serious note, wake up and talk to them or have a street meeting with ur neighbors ,so u guys set up some form of neighborhood watch who will b confronting these ppl. If all that can't work, then hire some fake or real security men who can threaten n intimidate them
Bad idea

Three preaching at the same time? That's serious! The way people take religious matter, one would think they're no evil people in this country but na lie, na them wicked pass. Sorry your plight op, continuous sleep deprivation can affect your physical and mental health. You need to have a chat with these preachers and let them know how all that preaching is taking a toll on your health. They don't have to use loudspeakers to pass their messages accross. It's advisable to involve key members of your neighbourhood in the dialogue.
I keep wondering if d whites that brought Christianity to us are even practicing it ds was. So, u will go-to a street in Texas and 3 people will be doing preaching competition with megaphone in early morning?

Are you sure it is the noise that is disturbing you or the messages that are hitting you in a bad place?
Whichever one, get ears cover device and always wear it to sleep.

Honestly, the noise is getting to you because you put your mind to it and because you are biased already.

It is not the noise that is disturbing you from sleeping, it is the anger and hatred for what those morning criers are doing that is causing your sleeplessness.

Once your attitude change, you will get good sleep, afterall we sleep well with a very noisy generator.

I used to get angry at the Muslim early morning call for prayers but later I programmed my mind to enjoy it as an early morning music.
It is very wrong. If the government decides to react now many of us including myself will target it persecution. How can I come from work to meet noise from a church or mosque?. Do you realize the psychological trauma one gets from such noise?.This madness must stop. You can preach or pray without disturbing your neighbours. You can sell your products without constituting nuisance to the society. This boils down to proper planning
