Lagos State Government has closed down Quilox Restaurant Bar Night Club in Victoria Island over safety and environmental infractions.
Gatekeepers News reports that the Lagos State Environmental Protection Agency (LASEPA) and the Lagos State Safety Commission(LSC) revealed the development via their X handle on Sunday.
Both agencies conducted a joint enforcement operation, sealing Quilox for non-compliance with essential environmental regulations.
The agencies also warned Sol Beach, The Good Beach and Landmark Beach over environmental violations and safety measures.
“Lagos State Government Seals Quilox, strongly warns Sol Beach, The Good Beach and Landmark Beach over Environmental and Safety infractions.
“A joint enforcement operation between the Lagos State Environmental Protection Agency (LASEPA) and the Lagos State Safety Commission (LSC) sealed Quilox nightclub over environmental and safety infractions.
“Recall an earlier press release, where both agencies have warned social centres to ensure that their operations do not affect the safety and wellbeing of other citizens and vowed to sanction any of such erring.
“The agencies also warned the operators of Sol beach, the good beaches, landmark beach and other social centres across the State to ensure that adequate considerations are made towards the safety and wellbeing of their neighbours and citizens of the State during the Yuletide.”
The government had previously sealed the establishment last month for concerns such as severe traffic congestion and a disregard for agency directives. However, Quilox was later reopened after operators committed to adhering to safety rules. Now, the closure has been reiterated, emphasizing the importance of environmental and safety considerations.
