We discovered that a business owner having completed his building structure intends to run a gas plant. This his business is sited in a residential area. He was approached and he claimed he was permitted to do so by the relevant authorities.
I want to know where to seek redress considering that this is a disaster waiting to happen. Thanks.

Department of Petroleum Resources(DPR) is the government agency saddled with the responsibility to issue site approval after the fire service and police have initially indicated in writing that such location will not hinder vehicular movement and fire fighting in case of emergency.

It could be that this person may have gotten this approval long before residential building started springing up within the location else LPG is not supposed to be sited in residential areas as it were. You can visit DPR office to make your complains. Cheer!

If you are in Lagos, report to the Lagos State Environmental Protection Agency or write a petition addressed to the Commisioner for Environment and take it there personally.

The way they would handle the guy ehn, even you would pity him.
