Dear Oba Kosoko @Blvckheart_Levi ,
Please note that the Lagos State Ministry of the Environment and Water Resources @LasgMOE is not the agency directly responsible for enforcing compliance with noise pollution regulations. This responsibility falls within the statutory mandate of the Lagos State Environmental Protection Agency (LASEPA), which is the appropriate agency to handle complaints and enforcement matters relating to noise pollution.
For clarity, the Ministry exercises supervisory and policy oversight over its various agencies, while the agencies are established with specific statutory mandates and are responsible for the day-to-day execution of their respective functions. For instance, LAWMA @Lawma_gov is responsible for waste management, LASPARK @LASPARKLagos handles parks and gardens, LASAA @lasaaonline oversees signage matters within its mandate, while LASEPA @LasepaOfficial is responsible for environmental protection and pollution control, including noise pollution.
Although these agencies operate under the Ministry’s supervisory framework, they have distinct operational responsibilities. Consequently, the Ministry does not ordinarily undertake the day-to-day enforcement activities assigned to these agencies. Such matters are appropriately referred to the relevant agency for investigation, enforcement and necessary action.
In view of the foregoing, kindly forward your letter concerning noise pollution directly to LASEPA @LasepaOfficial or the GM, Dr. Tunde Ajayi @thetundeajayi for prompt attention and appropriate action.
Thank you for your understanding.

Young people with zero sense of agency. Ughhhhh!!!!
It is actually very disturbing that a young person cannot just google basic things and set themselves up.
It’s everything you must join a Telegram group for. You cannot exercise your own critical thinking, you just always outsource it to others.
You’ll see someone mention an opportunity on Twitter, and you’re in the comments asking for the link a million times. Meanwhile, someone with a higher sense of agency has googled it, found the link, read the requirements, and probably started applying.
“This mercor thing I’m seeing online, somebody should dm me the link.”
Ehrr…Google it? Ask ChatGPT? Search Twitter? Anything?
You cannot apply for visa yourself. Not that you don’t have time o, you’re just not sure how to do it and have zero willingness to do what’s necessary to learn. You need an agent or a “plug” or WhatsApp group for the most basic things. What’s going on?
You cannot just sit down, read, research, follow instructions, and figure things out without somebody holding your hand? Later, you’ll be angry that somebody is charging you ₦20k to join a WhatsApp group. Since you’ve decided not to take control of your own affairs nko?
You either develop a sense of agency in your life, or keep paying those who have developed theirs. Simple.
But if it’s a new social media feature, you’ll figure that one out. Please do better for yourself. Take control of your own life.
Before you ask, first ensure you actually have exhausted all the options available to you. “Is it not easier to ask?” Not when that’s your default response everytime!
Learn to research. Learn to navigate unfamiliar systems. Learn to read instructions. Learn to make informed decisions. Learn to figure things out even when nobody is available to guide you.
Train your own brain. Bruh. Be intellectually independent.
It is how to go far in life, faster.
Guys, we have another life to save and impact forever.
Baby Samuels first surgery is tomorrow Friday, Nov 6. He doesn’t deserve to go through this excruciating pain 2/3 times daily so we are about to change that. PERMANENTLY!
We have N2.3m left to raise from the N4m cost of the 2 surgeries. Please partner with us and reshare to save his life. 🙏🏼

Today, I challenge you to do this:
1. Switch off your phone and remove all distractions
2. Take a pen and paper
3. Write down every skill you have (doesn’t matter if it’s not tech)
4. Ask yourself what the world is already paying for that matches those skills
5. Come back online, open ChatGPT or Claude, and paste this:
“I did some introspection for self-assessment and my skills are [list them here]. What does the world want and is already paying for that matches these skills? Suggest specific opportunities, niches, or offers I can package and start selling quickly.”
Do it now, don’t procrastinate
As Lagos prepares for possible extreme heat conditions associated with the strengthening El Niño climate pattern and the transition into the dry season, I urge all residents to take necessary precautions to protect their health and wellbeing.
As a densely populated and rapidly urbanising coastal city, Lagos is particularly vulnerable to rising temperatures. Our densely built-up neighbourhoods, roads and limited green spaces can intensify the urban heat effect, making conditions more challenging for many residents.
The anticipated conditions could increase heat discomfort, dehydration, respiratory challenges and poor air quality, particularly among vulnerable groups, including children, older persons, pregnant women and outdoor workers.
I therefore call on every Lagos resident, community leader, market association, school, business owner and employer to take this advisory seriously. Let us make access to clean drinking water, shaded spaces and proper ventilation a priority, especially for those who work outdoors and those most at risk.
Residents are also urged to stay hydrated, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, wear light clothing, limit strenuous outdoor activities during the hottest hours and avoid open burning of refuse.
Beyond immediate precautions, we must confront the environmental factors that worsen urban heat. Protect our trees, plant more, preserve our green spaces, dispose of waste responsibly and desist from activities that degrade our environment.
Keeping Lagos safe from the impacts of extreme heat requires action from all of us. Government will continue to strengthen public awareness and collaborate with relevant agencies and stakeholders to improve preparedness and response. But every household, street, community and business has a role to play.
Let us act early, look out for one another and take collective responsibility for building a cooler, healthier and more climate-resilient Lagos.
There is a version of poverty most people never talk about.Full grown adults who never learned to swim, cycle, skate, or play an instrument. People who never took a gap year, never traveled, never spoke a second language. It is not a lack of interest. It is a lifetime of hustling
