~2.0 mins read

In a bid to clamp down on indecent dressing, a Federal Polytechnic in

Anambra state has caused quite a buzz on social media with their method of fighting indecency at the school.

Twitter user, ZSA shared a snapshot of the notice put up by the school which listed the type of dressing that has been banned from the school.

The poster carried a list of dress codes no longer allowed.

For the guys, dreadlocks, jeans and t-shirts with 'immoral messages', ripped jeans and shorts among other things have prohibited.

For the ladies, sleeveless dresses, coloured hair, long and coloured braids, nose rings, long artificial lashes, are no longer allowed.

Part of the post reads:

"Dress decently and God will love you more. Indecent dressing reduces a queen/king to a slave."

ZSA who shared the post tagged it ridiculous.

He captioned:

"Someone shared this with me on Facebook. Apparently, this is the dress code issued by a Federal Polytechnic in Anambra state. How ridiculous is this? Institutions subjugating citizens and subjects.
Does it not end?"

Many Nigerians have expressed outrage over the set of rules which they don't agree with.
