A 79-year-old neighbour, Mrs. Esther Ogunsalu, whose residence shares a
common fence with the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Chapel of
Victory, located on 4, Sogunle Street, Abule Onigbagbo Estate, off
Mobolaji Bank Anthony Way, Ikeja, Lagos, had dragged the church before
the court for disturbing her peace. she accused the church of pollution”
while conducting its religious programmes.
Ogunsalu, in the case with suit no LD/1336/2011 filed before Justice Aishat Opesanwo, said the noise emanating from the church prevents her from sleeping, adding that it also “triggers her hypertensive heart disease.”
She asked the court to declare that the continuous occupation and use of the premises as a place of worship “contravenes the building and town planning regulations of Lagos State.”
Ogunsalu, in the case with suit no LD/1336/2011 filed before Justice Aishat Opesanwo, said the noise emanating from the church prevents her from sleeping, adding that it also “triggers her hypertensive heart disease.”
She asked the court to declare that the continuous occupation and use of the premises as a place of worship “contravenes the building and town planning regulations of Lagos State.”
However, Opesanwo referred both parties to the Multi-Door Courthouse, Igbosere, Lagos, for mediation.
At the Multi-Door Courthouse, the parties adopted a term of settlement
dated November 7, 2012 which was signed by the church’s pastor, Dapo
Morawo, and Ogunsalu alongside her lawyer, Mr. Dan Kizito, in the
presence of a mediator, identified as Mr. Dosunmu.
The terms of
settlement obtained by our correspondent on Monday stated, “That in the
interest of peace and justice, parties have agreed to make peace and
that the first respondent (owner and trustees of the RCCG) and the
second respondent (Morawo) will maintain a zero noise pollution in
accordance with Lagos State regulations and laws.”
At the resumed
hearing of the case, Justice Opesanwo said since the parties had agreed
to an amicable resolution of the dispute, the court would adopt the
terms of settlement as its judgment.
“The said terms of settlement
have been duly examined. I hereby adopt and pronounce it as the judgment
of this court. Parties are urged to bear their respective obligations
under the settlement terms,” Opesanwo said.
