emale student of the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN), Garki Centre, Abuja, Cassandra Michael, has raised the alarm after being denied access to the school’s examination hall for “improper dressing”.

 Cassandra in a one-minute and 30-second-long video which went viral on Wednesday, explained that she went to school in the morning for her examination but one of the invigilators drove her away, saying she would not be allowed to take the examination because she was “dressed improperly”.

“I’m on school premises. I have not gone home. I’m going to show you people what I’m putting on. If this is improper, you people should tell me and if it is not improper, you people should help me share this video to get to whoever owns the school.

“This is because what they are doing to us now, some people cannot actually come out to say it but I will come out to say it because I know my rights. That is why I’m here.”

In the viral video, a school security guard is seen dragging Cassandra away from the entrance of the said examination hall, saying, “They said you should go out”, and when she asked, “What is my offence? Why am I being thrown out? I have an exam by 2:00,” the said invigilator wore a white shirt and black trousers said, “Don’t you know what you wear?” 

Cassandra asked, “What am I wearing? Which part of my body is showing?”
