A security outfit in Anambra has announced its intention to arrest women seen in public without bras or panties, according to a viral video shared on X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday.

In the footage, an official of the outfit, speaking in Igbo, claimed the directive was issued by Anambra State Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo. He further stated that women wearing only panties in public would also be subject to arrest.

However, Anambra authorities have yet to release an official statement regarding the announcement.

Reacting to the development, former Kaduna Senator Shehu Sani questioned how the security outfit would verify compliance and whether the directive also applied to men.

“Anambra’s Bra and Pant law; I don’t know if the Pant law is applicable to men… and how can the security outfit verify ladies’ compliance??” he wrote on X.
