In Anambra State, a new rule has been announced that says women who are seen in public without wearing bras or panties will be arrested.
This announcement was made by a man using a loudspeaker in a public place. In a video that has been shared widely online, the man said the order came from the state governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo. He also warned that women wearing only panties without bras in public would also face arrest.
The video has caused different reactions from people. Some believe the rule is unnecessary and unfair to women, while others think it is meant to promote decency in public dressing.
Many Nigerians have been asking questions: Is this really the governor’s order? Does the law support this kind of rule? And how will security officers decide who is breaking it?
For now, the government has not officially confirmed or denied the announcement. But the debate about what people should wear in public continues.
