Nollywood actress, Kemi Lala-Akindoju, has reacted to the underwear policy issued to female students by a Nigerian polytechnic.
Reports made rounds last week that the management of Delta State Polytechnic, Ogwashi-Uku, has declared a ‘no bra, no entry; no pant, not entry’ policy for female students.
A video of female students standing outside the school gate after they were denied entry into the school for allegedly not wearing underwear also circulated on social media.
It was gathered that security officials were stationed outside the school gate to check if the female students complied with the new policy.
Reacting, Lala Akindoju took to her Twitter page to criticize the school, stating that the policy is ‘ridiculous’.
She then asked if the school are also checking if male students wear underwear as well, or if the ‘madness’ is targeted at female students alone.
She tweeted,
“So this Nigerian university and their no bra/no underwear policy for female students- is it that they don’t see the ridiculousness of it? Also did they check that all male students were wearing underwear?.Or the madness is only targeted at women.”
