Kaduna Polytechnic Reacts to Viral Video Alleging Unfair Dress Code Enforcement


The management of Kaduna Polytechnic has reacted to a viral video circulating on social media in which some female students complained about what they described as “extreme and unfair” enforcement of the institution’s dress code.

In a statement issued yesterday, the institution said the clothing worn by the affected students in the video appeared “moderate and appropriate.”
The statement, signed by Godwin Ayegba, Deputy Registrar, Information and Protocol, said the management had begun an investigation to determine the circumstances surrounding the incident to identify any lapses in the enforcement of the policy.

“The Management of Kaduna Polytechnic has taken note of the viral video circulating on social media on Thursday, 12 March 2026, depicting an incident where some students at the Polytechnic’s College of Business and Management Studies (CBMS) were prevented from attending their lectures by members of the Polytechnic’s Dress Code Committee.

“The management wishes to state clearly that the dresses worn by the affected students, as shown in the viral video, appear moderate and appropriate.

“In view of this, the students in question ought not to have been barred from their lectures on this basis,” the statement said.

The institution explained that it maintains a dress code policy aimed at promoting decency, professionalism and a conducive learning environment for both students and staff.

According to Ayegba, the Dress Code Committee is mandated to enforce the policy in line with the institution’s established guidelines. The statement however stressed that enforcement must not be excessive, but “must remain within the bounds of the approved policy and must not be carried out in an extreme or arbitrary manner.”

He added that “appropriate measures will be taken to resolve the matter swiftly and fairly and to prevent any recurrence of overzealous enforcement”.

The management reaffirmed its commitment to enforcing the dress code while ensuring that students’ access to education is not unnecessarily hindered.

It also advised students to comply with the policy and channel complaints through official mechanisms rather than resorting to social media.

Ayegba said the Polytechnic remains dedicated to fostering a disciplined, respectful, and academically focused campus environment for the benefit of all stakeholders.

In the video footage, a student speaking on behalf of her colleagues said they had been cleared by security personnel at the campus gate but were later stopped by another official who insisted that their dressing was inappropriate.

“This video is not going to sit well with a lot of people, but I’m going to make it nonetheless because I don’t understand,” she said.

“Let’s try and fear God. KadPoly, with all due respect, I don’t know if you are aware of what your officials are doing, but they are being extreme and very unfair in the enforcement of the dress code…”

I think the lies, deceit and the propaganda spread by sharia advocates that sharia law is only for Muslims have now come to an end today..

How can you force people to wear hijab under such harsh weather?

I don’t even envy those wearing it voluntarily, but forcing it on Christians can never be tolerated …

Lol. Seun himself is a shariah supporter.

I relocated from Northern Nigeria after many years.

Best decision of my life

Same thing has happened and still happening in UNIMAID, UDUS. and in Kebbi.

Media no send una.

They are claiming monopoly of a religion which to me is a form of religious cult. Self-serving interpretations. Tribally tainted.

Islam is not a religion; it's a cult that uses violence to coerce people to do its bidding. Kaduna Polytechnic is a secular educational institution, not an islamic school!

Here they go again as usual. Fanatic cult of blood suckers called a religion. Nigeria is grossly incompatible with these brutes

Naso Dem go carry IRAN madness start crisis .

Imagine!! and those imposing this stupiidd law are foreigners that have used Islam to steal Kaduna land from the real owners. This fate awaits Yorubas if they surrender to Islam and Sharia

What makes you conclude I'm in the South or even in Nigeria after my relocation

Sibrah:

specify the religion please

Is Nigeria really a country?

Na wah oh!

Why? Nigeria cannot afford divisive decisions at a time like this.

Someone ought to take full responsibility for the blunder and the right agencies of the government must be seen investigating this as a future deterent


Which agency is responsible for investigating this at this time?

Nigeria has been touched off by Islamist, because Christians are sleeping, they won't act to defend themselves,they are always crying like babies, na wa o for this Christiandom o.
very weak people.🤔

Awon religion of peace,

You are a prophet...

You see beyond petty propaganda.

Kudos!!!

This right here is the problem.. the muslims are moving like a cult while Christians are busy sleeping, divided in the face of persecution. It's evident in the security architecture and every other aspect of life in Nigeria.
Just sad honestly.

I expect the Christians in the school to massively reject this madness

Kaduna is not even a sharia/Muslim dominated state...

lol. It has started . Very soon it will be everywhere

The school has released a publication...this is extremism taken to higher institution... Waiting concern fasting and dress code ? Those ones who see themselves as moderate terrorists will not comment on this...they are only interested in propaganda from middle east

I left the north far back 2014.That region is cursed.It shall never be well with lord luggard

Are you blind Mr man. Or you need someone to interpret the video for you.

If this is the reason they were denied, the overzealous man should be sanctioned. She mentioned that that the campus security had cleared her.
