A local security outfit in Anambra State, allegedly linked to Governor Charles Soludo’s administration, has reportedly declared that women seen in public without bras or panties will be arrested.
The announcement has ignited fierce debates on social media, with many Nigerians condemning it as an infringement on personal freedoms.
While the state government has yet to confirm or deny the directive, legal experts argue that such an enforcement would violate constitutional rights.
Women’s rights advocates have also criticized the policy, calling it discriminatory and a dangerous precedent for policing women’s bodies.
Supporters, however, claim it promotes decency and aligns with cultural values, though many question the feasibility of enforcement.
The controversy has led to calls for an official government statement clarifying its stance on the matter.
Until then, uncertainty and public outrage continue to grow over the alleged dress code restriction.
