You might check out this blog post. It described how to do it more detail than I could.

EDIT:

Important parts of blog post are:

1 - Create our interface that will be implemented by a custom Application class:

interface LifecycleDelegate {
    fun onAppBackgrounded()
    fun onAppForegrounded()
}

2 - Now we a class that is going to implement the ActivityLifecycleCallbacks and ComponentCallbacks2:

class AppLifecycleHandler(
    private val lifeCycleDelegate: LifeCycleDelegate
) : Application.ActivityLifecycleCallbacks, ComponentCallbacks2
{
    private var appInForeground = false

    override fun onActivityResumed(activity: Activity?) {
        if (!appInForeground) {
            appInForeground = true
            lifeCycleDelegate.onAppForegrounded()
        }
    }

    override fun onTrimMemory(level: Int) {
        if (level == ComponentCallbacks2.TRIM_MEMORY_UI_HIDDEN) {
            appInForeground = false
            lifeCycleDelegate.onAppBackgrounded()
        }
    }

    // stub other methods
}

3 - We need to use that handler in our application class:

class App : Application(), LifeCycleDelegate {

    override fun onCreate() {
        super.onCreate()
        val lifeCycleHandler = AppLifecycleHandler(this)
        registerLifecycleHandler(lifeCycleHandler)
    }

    override fun onAppBackgrounded() {
        Log.d("App", "App in background")
    }

    override fun onAppForegrounded() {
        Log.d("App", "App in foreground")
    }

    private fun registerLifecycleHandler(lifeCycleHandler: AppLifecycleHandler) {
        registerActivityLifecycleCallbacks(lifeCycleHandler)
        registerComponentCallbacks(lifeCycleHandler)
    }
}

This exactly what lifecycles are used for. Any clean up work that needs to done should be done in onDestroy(). This is the final call you receive before your activity is destroyed. So in the activity where you want to disable wifi you can just do:

override func onDestroy() {

   super.onDestroy();
   wifiManager!!.isWifiEnabled = false;

}
