QMB Restaurant and Clubhouse at the Lekki based QMB Lifestyle Centre has been unsealed by the Lagos state Government after clearing the company of any wrongdoing upon the presentation of building plan permits and the Certificate of Occupancy which confirmed that the company has proper title to the land in question and was in compliance with relevant laws and regulations.
In a press statement on Wednesday by QMB’s Head, Corporate and Legal Services, Mrs Bukola Helen Olusolade, on behalf of the company, announced the reopening of its business premises after a meeting with the office of the Special Adviser to the Governor on E-GIS and Urban Development, where the proper title and building permits were presented as documentary evidence of compliance.
According to Olusolade “The QMB management met with officials of the Lagos State Government and tendered copies of the approved building permit issued by the physical planning authority of the Lagos State Government, and the C of Os signed by the Lagos State Governor. I can also confirm that the relevant set back rules and the Lagos State, Federal Government, and International Building Codes which require adequate safe distance from high-tension power lines to prevent exposure to radiation were in fact observed and complied with. Our facilities therefore pose no danger to our staff and customers. Consequently, our premises has been unsealed and business has reopened immediately.”
“We wish to express gratitude to our customers, associates, stakeholders and well-wishers for their calls, visits and messages expressing concern and sympathy during the period of closure. Our assurance to the public is that we are a law abiding corporate entity which respects the rule of law and regulatory frame works. In consonance with our core values, we will continue to maintain the highest standards of compliance and cooperation with relevant authorities.”
It would be recalled that the Lagos State Building Control Agency sealed the QMB Restaurant and Club House for violating extant building rules and regulations without any prior notice.
