According to Fasawe, “To avert situation like this, we recently held a stakeholder’s parley with the Owners/ Chief Executive Officers of night clubs in the state to address the issue of noise pollution during the festive period.
“The states in its magnality, compassionately increased the decibels to accommodate leisure/hospitality business interest.
“We urged them to apply for sound control permits to enable us reach out and notify the host community of the intended program and further deploy our officials to the venue for proper monitoring and prevention of excessive noise pollution.”
Invitation to Quilox
According to Fasawe, “invitation was extended to Quilox club, like every other stakeholders and was ignored by the club for reasons best known to them.”

“To support the entrepreneurship interest of the operators, we had an agreement at the stakeholder’s parley, came up with a communique which serves as a bond guiding all parties on mode of operations during the yuletide period and consequences inherent in non compliance to environmental mutual agreement, ” Fasawe said.
