The experience can really be troubling for some people. Even covering your ear with a pillow or something else might not be enough sometimes. If it's possible you can report the church to the head of your street or area you live in to caution them to reduce the noise level. That was the case with one of the neighbours who resided in an estate that my Elder brother currently presided over. The man complained to my bros about the matter and he talked it over with the church. They complied and reduced their noise level within that vicinity. Just give it a try, who knows!.

It's a lawless country. The mosques are worse in keeping people awake. Evangelican Christian Churches compete with the mosques for which of the two can make the loudest noise. Even if a law is made against noise from churches and mosques, Muslim clerics will refuse such a law by saying that noise blaring is their culture and way of life. They wouldn't give a damn about the feelings of non Muslims. 1 Like |

geoworldedu: Please, don't do that, sir. I have been criticizing religion longer than you could read. But, this is beyond religion... This is happening because the nation is lawless! That's why I called out those whose job it should be to enforce the laws. Religious houses are managed by human beings not spirits... An average Nigerian is lawless, being religious or atheist has nothing to do with that. 2 Likes |

Angelfrost: The analogy is accurate. My church is soundproof and fully A/C. Hardly would you hear what goes on outside. The mistake you JW make is you group churches together. This is what I told my JW best friend. He is an elder in your Kingdom hall. All churches are not the same. They don't have the same doctrines. But you seem to ignore this fact. Any one that is calling on the name of Jesus that is not a JW is believed by you to be the same. Some churches are demonic. Many do rituals. But not all are demonic. Until you know this, you will continue the life of 21st century Pharisees. Like that Pharisee in Jesus's proverb praying, "God I am not like that woman over there, a sinner. I fast, I ..." 1 Like |

🤓🤠That's some serious noise challenge. So dem dey use noise pepper, oppress each other? Man, you shouldn't come to that conclusion. Report the matter to the Environmental Protection agency. Or better yet take it to the head of your street to reason with those churches. PrinceGallant: 1 Like |

Tetraozonaitera: See how you quickly concluded that I'm a member of JW... Lol. Bro, I gave up religion over 15 years ago. I don't care what religion anyone subscribes to, environmental laws should be complied with and enforced. Whether Church, Mosque or Shrine, it doesn't matter... Every religion should abide by the laws of the land. 3 Likes |

Angelfrost: Did I say environmental noise polution is good? No. All I am telling the Jehovah witness guy was that the "Holier than thou" attitudes of their sect is annoying. They are always quick to criticize other christians. On why I assume you are JW. Because the person I quoted is JW and you are the one replying me that I am wrong. So, I am on point to think you are one of them. On you giving up on religion. It's your own cup of Nescafe . But one thing is sure, religion or not, everyone needs Jesus to be right with God.

XtraFortunes If you're in Lagos, contact LASEPA. That's their duty. If you need help, I can link you with a friend who worked there (I am not sure if he is still there) |

It's only in lagos the government talk about noise pollution. Other states are far behind. Any sensible governor would control or limit noise pollution. |

XtraFortunes:Following Jesus by disturbing your neighbors peace? Totally unscriptural. What they do in the name of all night prayers is contrary to Bible teachings. When a church is praying it should not be for the public but to God alone! 1 Like |

This topic moved me. Why on earth we allow senseless noise pollution. Why? This is 2023 o. I met a man some decades ago lamented bitterly how a church that recently rented a place disturbed them during most nights of the week by their noise. Nobody to run to to stop the insanity. 1 Like |

Approach the church and discuss your concerns with then. They may be the type that have a listening ear. It is after this that you can consider the option of reporting them. Don't die in silence |

One thing I look out for when ever I want to move to new area. I don't rent house where there's any religious center on the street. Again, prepaid meter/NEPA bill check and how organized the compound is. and I try as much as possible to see two or three co-tenant to kn if they are the type that can be minding their business. |
