Hello fellow Nairalanders, I need your help with this church in the building I just rented for two years. It is a Redeemed Christian Church of God. I didn't know there was a church just next flat when I found, negotiated and paid for this apartment.


I just entered the house now (almost 7pm) and as I type, they are holding this weekly function and playing their band so loud the sofa I'm on is vibrating. They have this programme too they hold midnight till well into the wee hours of the morning. I was woken by this at around 3am one day and they were playing the live band. Isn't that rather callous and unchristian. Right I side am apartment building.

Please how can I take them up with the authorities for such loud noise. We are going insane here with the whole loud sound and vibration of the whole apartment.

What a coincidence!!!!
I was just about to create a thread on that particular menace.
I don't know why Nigerians take religion/worship sooooo tough.
As a PG student starting my exams in few days, they have been denying me optimum concentration (both day and night).
May God help us

contact the head of Land Lords' Association of the area or you pay a visit to the Local Council Area office.

Noise pollution

The noise from nigerian churches can make someone not to hear the sound of the trumpet.. It can even drive angels away

But seriously, these religious bodies needs to be checkmate.The one in my neighborhood will wake someone as early as 5am with their noise disturbing everyone

Yes i am a christian but i must speak the truth
Even the whites that brought Christianity to us don't create such hazards as we do...

location?
You can contact the nearest town planning office to complain.
You have a good case because the property in question is meant for residential purpose, that is even if the 'subject property' have a building plan approval.
But you yourself might not last in that house because your landlord will also be affected, whatever the planning office decision.
Your landlord have already contravene the statutory planning law by leasing a property meant for residential uses for public uses.
The said church will be ask to vacate the property else the 'whole' property might be seal.
Pls complain, dont suffer in silent.
Gracias.

Good!!
Lagos has a more efficient and robust town planning service, at least it is second only to fct-abuja.
Do visit the nearest district planning office.
