A document containing the dress code distributed to students of Federal Polytechnic Oko is causing stir on social media.
The document reads, War Against Indecent Dressing (WAID) in Federal Polytechnic Oko contains a list of acceptable and unacceptable dressings in the tertiary institution.
For the women, the code bans things like skirt with slit above knees, off-shoulder dresses and tops, sleeveless dresses and tops, rugged jeans and low waist trousers, lengthy and coloured braids, coloured hair, long artificial lashes, bandana hairband, bogus fashion jewelries and more.
For the male students, they banned long and bushy hair/beard, braids, dread lock and coloured hair, rugged jeans, kaftan without trousers, inscription on hair cut, T-shirts and jeans with immoral messages and more.
Nigerians have reacted, calling the dress code “ridiculous”.
