The students council of the Federal Polytechnic Ilaro, Ogun state, has made it mandatory for female students to wear pants and bra while on campus. The directive was said to be sequel to an observation that many female students now attend classes obviously without wearing undies.
The latest instruction was contained in a memo at the weekend by the school’s New Media office and signed by Speaker of the student council, Sulaimon Adedamola. “It is important to remember that pants and a bra are required while on campus. This is not only for your comfort and safety but also out of respect for other students.
“It is essential that you wear pants and a bra while on campus. This is not a suggestion, it is a requirement. If you do not comply you will face the consequences and may face disciplinary action. Please respect your fellow students and the rules of the school by wearing appropriate clothing at all times.
“This could include warnings and even suspension. The school takes this rule very seriously and any violation will be treated as a serious offence,” the memo reads.
