Lagos to prosecute owners of 28 vehicles parked ‘illegally’ at Cubana club
The Lagos state government says it will take action against owners of vehicles illegally parked in front of Cubana nightclub.
Tokunbo Wahab, the state commissioner for environment and water resources, stated this in a post via X.
Wahab said the Lagos Environmental and Protection Agency (LASEPA) was at the club in Ikeja GRA during the early hours of Saturday.
He shared a video showing multiple vehicles parked along the road.
The commissioner said they were illegally parked and causing traffic obstructions.
The statement said 28 number plates of the “offending vehicles” were seized and the owners would be charged in court.
“The Lagos state environmental/security taskforce team today at about 1 am carried out a night enforcement operation, during which number plates of vehicles parked illegally in front of Cubana night club, obstructing the free flow of traffic along Sobo Arobiodu road, GRA Ikeja, were untied and confiscated,” the statement reads.
“28 number plates of vehicles caught violating the Lagos state traffic regulations at the location were all removed. Owners of the offending vehicles will all be charged to court.”
The Cubana nightclub is owned by Pascal Okechukwu, the socialite better known as Cubana Chief Priest.
In 2020, operatives of the Lagos Safety Commission and the state police sealed off Cubana nightclub for flouting COVID-19 protocols.
