The University of Calabar (UNICAL) in Cross River State has banned indecent dressing among students and staff of the university.
The Director of Service Compact With All Nigerian (SERVICOM) in UNICAL, Prof. Patrick Egaga, announced the ban via a statement issued on Friday, April 7.
Egaga stated that that ban was over the increase and proliferation of indecent, provocative, and unofficial dressing, mostly by students and some female UNICAL officials.
“Specifically, short skirts or gowns, above the knee, open backs, crap 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, lingeries, sagged trousers, and others.
“All of these will no longer be tolerated on campus with effect from Tuesday, May 2, 2023.
“Consequently, any student or staff clad in regalia or paraphernalia mentioned will 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,” he noted.
The SERVICOM Director enjoined female students and staff of the university to imitate the dressing culture of the UNICAL Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Florence Obi, and her deputies.
Egaga also called on the male students and staff to model the dressing pattern of the university’s Council Chairman, Gen. Martin Luther-Agwai (Rtd), and the Registrar, Gabriel Egbe.
