Indecent Dressing Isn’t An Offense, No Police Should Harass You- Edafe


The Public Relations Officer of the Delta State Police Command, Bright Edafe, has clarified that wearing indecent attire is not considered an offence, and therefore, no law enforcement officer should arrest individuals based on their clothing choices.

Edafe emphasized the need to address this issue publicly due to the frequent complaints of harassment from the public, particularly Delta residents, regarding this matter.


He made it clear that security personnel have no authority to harass or attempt to arrest individuals based on dress code.


Edafe in a video posted on his X handle on Tuesday, October 3, said: “I have been getting complaints that members of the public, particularly residents in Delta State are being harassed by some vigilantes, anti-cult, hunters association and some recalcitrant police officers.


“I want to make it very clear that on the issue of dress code, improper dressing, boys carrying dreadlocks, wearing earrings, girls bum shorts, miniskirts or going out without bra; it is not an offence.


“That circular was debunked by the state government hence, no policeman or vigilante or anti-cult or anybody can harass you for that. My number is 08131070122. If you call me and I don’t pick up, kindly send a text message.


“And if they insist that it’s an offence, you yourself, you should insist that you want the matter to be taken to a police station. When you get to the police station, you’ll be able to reach out to me. However, I really want you to know that it is not an offence.”


He added in the clip caption: “As requested by my wonderful followers, and residents in the State. No policeman, or vigilante, can arrest you over dreadlocks, bum shorts, or because you are braless, etc. It’s not an offence. My phone number is on the video for you to reach me immediately. Peace
