The Nairobi City County has announced the indefinite closure of the popular Habanos Lounge located along Kiambu Road following a string of complaints from area residents about excessive noise.

Nairobi County's Chief Officer for Environment, Geoffrey Mosiria, announced the closure on Wednesday, May 28, adding that the club would remain out of operation until adequate measures to mitigate the noise were enforced.

The closure followed numerous complaints obtained directly by Kenyans.co.ke, whereby area residents gave accounts of the noise they were consistently subjected to from the establishment. "Habanos is not closed and continues to operate as usual, terrorising residents with their illegal noise," one resident revealed on Tuesday.
