Nice

Please come and seal CAC mountain of deliverance in my area. Even if you're 3km away from this church you can't hear a thing let alone living close to it. The church is always active morning, day and night. Monday to Sunday, even on Sunday them go still start their noise for evening

They should come and collect the megaphone of these guys that disturb me every morning. Somebody will sleep finish and come out to say I can't sleep... is it fair?

Noise or environmental pollution... Cause all i can see is dirt

Lasgidi!!

AMBODE!!

The future is bright.... I perceive it

Many Many things wrong about ds country..
Some people will complain say Ambode dey affect God works.. #i totally Ambode on ds.

If Elrufai or Aregbe does this, CAN which is the unofficial religious arm of PDP, will not allow us hear word again!They would accuse them of trying to suppress Christianity!

Lagos is moviing forward.

Why d tin dey sweet me like dis

We should stop inviting problem to ourself, God is taking accunt of everything we are doing

That is wonderful, pls Rivers State should replicate it. The noise here is too much. #No be wash

duduade:


Then get a car...

Will you buy one for me??

Even if I have a car.. I'd still hear them every morning by 5am

They should improve the law by including stringent conditions such as jail sentence into it.

The major culprit now are those fasting. Why will some group of people be screaming Down our heads around 2am - 4am begging people to wake up. Are we all fasting? Why can't they call their phones or go to their houses to ring their bells?

The day we all start realising that your right stops where mine begins the better for us all.

Why church always lead the race of noise pollutant,are they the only 1 serving God?just asking though.

Gov. Amode kò fẹ́ osi
