The Christian Association of
Nigeria has called on parents across the country to warn their children against
dressing indecently so as not to invite rapists.
Chairman of CAN (North Central
Zone), Rev Israel Akanji, gave the warning in Abuja on Tuesday during a summit
organised by the Women’s Wing of Christian Council of Nigeria.
According to him, churches must
come up with tough measures against indecent dressing, adding that it was
against the teachings of the Bible.
Akanji said, “When people wear
mini dresses, sometimes they even wear it to church we must speak against it.
“Some of us try not to talk about
it because we feel if we talk to them, they may not return to our churches.
“The church has to come up with
tough measures against indecent dressing; indecent dressing must not be
accepted in the church of Christ.
“I want to appeal to parents that
while we are waiting for a law that will deal with rapists (I know that laws
exist right now), they must warn their children.
“Some children dress in such a
way that they appear as if they are inviting rapists to their lives.
“They are almost naked, they
expose body parts that some people cannot control themselves.
“Let us return to the culture of
decent dressing, it may not stop but it will minimise it.”
