The Lagos State Environmental Protection Agency (LASEPA) has sealed Donald’s Fast Food, a popular restaurant owned by socialite Pascal Chibuike Okechukwu, widely known as Cubana Chiefpriest. The closure, which took place recently, was due to persistent noise pollution and environmental violations.
Located on Adebayo Doherty Street in Lekki Phase 1, the fast food outlet had been a source of numerous complaints from residents in the area. Despite several warnings and abatement notices issued by LASEPA, the establishment failed to comply with the required environmental regulations.
The Lagos State Commissioner for Environment and Water Resources, Tokunbo Wahab, announced the closure on social media, emphasizing the government’s commitment to enforcing environmental laws.

The Commissioner also shared a video recorded by a resident at 2 a.m. on Sunday, indicating the loud music blasting from the fast food outlet-turned-nightclub, which further emphasized the disruption in the typically quiet residential neighborhood.
