As part of the new policy, any student or staff member dressed inappropriately will be denied access to university facilities or face sanctions. Female students and staff are encouraged to emulate the dressing culture of the Vice Chancellor, Prof. Florence Obi and her deputies, while male students and staff should follow the dressing pattern of the university's Council Chairman, Gen. Martin Luther-Agwai (retd.) and the Registrar, Mr. Gabriel Egbe.
This move aims to promote a more professional and respectful atmosphere on campus, ensuring that all members of the university community adhere to appropriate dress codes.
