Nema, Nairobi County ordered to inspect club 213 over noise pollution
A resident complained of sleepless nights due to loud music from the club.
The Environment and Land Court has ordered the National Environment Management Authority (Nema) and Nairobi County to inspect a nightclub in Lavington within seven days to evaluate the effectiveness of noise pollution mitigation measures in place. The case was initiated by resident Allan Monroe Onyango, who alleged that Club 213's loud music disrupted the sleep and well-being of nearby residents.
The court directed that a sound assessment, measuring noise levels inside and outside the club as well as at the neighborhood boundary, be conducted by Nema and the county government. The assessment will be limited to the duration necessary for the evaluation. An existing order restraining the club from playing music will remain in effect during the assessment, except for the controlled measurement period. The case will be revisited on August 21.
