The management of the University of Calabar in Cross Rivers State has banned indecent dressing among students and staff of the institution.
Patrick Egaga, the director of the Service Compact With All Nigerian (SERVICOM), at the institution, said wearing short skirts, open backs, braless tops, and gowns is now prohibited among students.
Egaga said the directive followed the rapid increase of indecent, and unofficial dressing, especially among some female students and staff of the institution.
He added that the ban will take effect in the institution from May 2, adding that violators would be sanctioned.
He said, “Specifically, short skirts or gowns, above the knee, open backs, crop tops, braless tops and gowns, spaghetti finger, sleeveless tops, handless gowns, bikinis, see-through, transparent, apparels and revealing contours are no longer tolerated on campus.
“Others are handless gowns, bum short revealing laps, slit skirts, body hugs, V-necks exposing breasts, tubes, strip-less, rag jeans, shorts above the knee, sleeveless shirts, singlets, lingerie, sagged trousers and others.
"All of those would no longer be allowed on campus with effect from Tuesday, May 2, 2023, and consequently, any student or staff member clad in the regalia or paraphernalia mentioned would be denied effective access into any of the university facilities or be appropriately sanctioned.
“A combined security and administrative task force will be constituted to monitor compliance.
"The female students and staff are enjoined to imitate the dressing culture of the Vice Chancellor, Prof. Florence Obi, and her deputies."
Meanwhile, he also called on the male students and employees to emulate the dressing pattern of the university council chairman, Gen. Martin Luther-Agwai (retd.), and the Registrar, Mr Gabriel Egbe.
