The programme which was themed, “Achieving a Noiseless Lagos for a Healthy Citizenry”, serves as a mind-opener to the participants on the dangers of noise pollution and the urgent need to restore the serenity in Lagos, and also to promote good neighborliness.
The post read, “The General Manager of Lagos State Environmental Protection Agency, Tunde Ajayi cautioned religious leaders to be mindful of the noise emanating from their end-of-the-year programmes, ensuring the welfare of their neighbours is paramount in other to avoid the implication of sealing their facilities”.
