Enugu State Issues Ultimatum for Churches and Mosques to Stop Noise Pollution

The Enugu State government has given all churches and mosques in the state a 90-day deadline to remove outdoor loudspeakers and implement soundproofing measures within their worship facilities. This directive is part of the state’s efforts to enforce the new Anti-Noise Pollution Policy.

 

The decision was announced following a stakeholders’ meeting organized by the Enugu Capital Territory Development Authority (ECTDA). The meeting, held on Thursday, included Christian and Muslim leaders, government officials, and media representatives, all aimed at tackling noise pollution issues in the state.

 

In December 2023, the state government had previously mandated nightclubs, beer parlors, and other entertainment venues to reduce noise levels, particularly in residential areas of the capital city, as part of an urban renewal initiative.

 

During the recent meeting, ECTDA Chairman Hon. Uche Anya reported receiving over 1,000 complaints regarding noise disturbances from churches. He expressed frustration with the current situation, stating that noise pollution is a significant issue in the state capital.

 

Anya emphasized the need for collaboration and understanding from religious institutions to effectively implement the new policy. “We have received numerous complaints about disruptions caused by noise from churches and businesses,” he said. “This policy aims to address these issues, and we need your cooperation to ensure its success.”

 

He further stressed that no business or church should operate in residential areas without adequate soundproofing. “We cannot permit establishments to operate without considering their impact on the community. Measures must be taken to ensure that noise does not disrupt the peace of neighboring residents.”
