Indecent Dressing: Ubeji Youths Go Tough, Order Flogging Of Offenders

By Diana Oluwole

Youths in Ubeji, Warri South Local Government Area of Delta State, under the aegis of Ubeji Youth and Employment Development, have embarked on an execise tagged, “War Against Indecent Dressing,” among young ladies in the area.

The exercise which started on Monday, July 3, 2023 had caused panic among ladies, making them to dress decently or risk being sanctioned with a fine of N10,000 or receive 40 strokes of the cane.

According to the Secretary of the body, Mr Stanley Bomele, who spoke to newmen, the execise became necessary due to the provocative ways ladies dressed in the community.

Bomele said most of the girls had gone haywire in the name of fashion with some of them almost going about in nudity, saying the development was irritating and did not tell well of the community.

He said the execise would continue till youngs girls in the community learn how to dress properly.

He warned that the wearing of mini skirts, bummer shorts or tight (bikers shorts) would no longer be tolerated in the community as indecent dressing had been the major cause of assaults and sexual harressment in the community.
