6 new strip clubs open in Lagos state,they pay taxes like other organisations

Strip clubs, where girls dance stark n*ked and p*rnographic movies are shown along with the erotic and exotic dances, have multiplied on Opebi-Allen axis of Ikeja, Lagos, western Nigeria,undercover investigation has revealed. The adult entertainment venues, located on a stretch of just over a kilometre, are so close to each other, that patrons trek from one strip club to another within minutes to enjoy the lewd dances, including lap and table dances as well as s*x bouts in the VIP lounges. Some of the new strip clubs in the area are old ones that went under for sometime but are now back in full force and are operating freely with the backing of the Lagos State House of Assembly which legalised them about three years ago.
The six strip clubs are: Ocean Blue on Sensation Bus Stop in Opebi, Teazers Cabaret by Opebi Bus Stop and Unique Gents' Club on Ogundana Street in Allen. Others are Didoz, Wall Street and the Villa, all of them located around First Bank Bus Stop.

Ocean Blue whose building collapsed last year shortly after a church moved nearby has been rebuilt and reopened for business. It prides itself as Nigeria's strip club with girls on fire.

Like in a boxing ring, patrons, mainly married and unmarried men, sit around the 'ring' and sip their drinks and watch the female dancers who gradually remove everything, including their pants as they dance around a pole, their bodies gleaming.

The strip clubs argue that they are simply providing a demand, a deep and secret urge in mainly men who troop in there every night of every week.
But since the Lagos State House of Assembly legalised them about three years ago, they have been multiplying across the state. They advertise on major roads and no longer hide as they did in the past.
Many of them now pay taxes and attract more girls who are no longer ashamed of dancing nude.
