The University of Ilorin is arguably the most consistent federal university in Nigeria at the moment. The school is well known and is mostly preferred amongst students as a result of its stable academic calendar. However, there are some controversial rules which the school expects its students to abide to; especially rules pertaining to student’s mode of dressing. The university has a constituted dress code committee which monitors how students dress on campus. Our sources say the third time a particular student is apprehended by the committee, such student would face expulsion. In a sensational twist of events, the university has now placed a ban on the use of ‘heavy make-ups’ by female students on campus. Furthermore, girls can no longer use hair extensions with colours such as; blue, green, white, yellow, red, pink and purple, or a combination of any of these colours. Also, male students are not allowed to plait, curl or weave hair. According to the school’s dress code, students are not allowed to have some particular hairstyles, as it specifies some prohibited hairstyles such as ‘artificial dread locks’, ‘galax’, ‘fadeout’ and rough coil haircuts.
