The GM LASEPA, Dolapo Fasawe, said, “ it is no longer business as usual in the State, this pandemic has united us all and encourages citizen participation in terms of information sharing.

“We responded at exactly 3:10 pm after receiving the information and surprisingly met the youth who were shabbily dressed for a birthday party. It shouldn’t be difficult for us to obey simple instruction and adhere strictly to safety precautions, so as to timely flatten the curve, so normalcy can return back to the world.

“The facility has been sealed off while the youths were taken away by the police for further investigation and profiling. “This is to appeal to parents and guardians to seriously warn their wards and stay away from unlawful gathering. All hands are on deck to ensure that there is no hiding place for flagrant violators. The war can only be won through the collective efforts of all. We all have a part to play as stakeholders”.

The GM, further disclosed that another night club was sealed in Victoria Graden City, Monday.
