He said Governor Mbah should add nightclubs, political party offices, weddings and Birthday parties to complete the list.

The former federal lawmaker stated this via his X handle (formerly known as Twitter) @ShehuSani on Friday, August 16.

He wrote:

The Enugu state directive against ‘noise pollution’ took on both Churches and mosques, so it can’t be said to be biased. They only need to add nightclubs, political party offices, weddings and Birthday parties to make it complete. No need for noise “Enugu is in the hands of God”.

You can’t attack and put blame on only religious sites for causing noise pollution in the states. The number of nightclubs and bars in Enugu are more than 5 times the number of churches and mosques, add them to the list 😤

@chidiTolujie

Do political party offices make noise?

@Dombarthoo

Enugu was in the hands of God during Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi but now, we are in the hands of the Chief DEMOLISHER of properties.

@Memetrolly

Some noise are amplified by economic conditions.

We're no longer in the hands of God. "Tommorow is Here"
