Police Nab Group Who Flog Women For Wearing Trousers In Owerri

Men of Imo State Police Command have nabbed a group going by the name
Valiant Purity in Owerri on January 26, 2015:

The group who started their raid along Wetheral road Owerri went about
flogging ladies who are putting on trousers saying that God told them
to do so.

After injuring two ladies at MCC junction, the attention of the
officers controlling the traffic was called on.

On nabbing one of them, the others flee along to Cherubim Junction
where they continued their raid.

While speaking, the member who was in police net said they were
directed by God to stop women from wearing trousers in the country.

He added that they had written the Federal Government informing them
of their plans which was approved. He did not say anything about
police approval or present any document that would justify their
actions.

Meanwhile the men were forcefully giving flyers to the ladies they had
flogged, and the flyer has one Prophet Abraham Isaac Ogbuta as the
head of the organization.

A part of the flyer says 'my direction as God "these young men Valiant
Purity will have their whips, for sake of fear while Nigerians forces
arrest any defaulters, before such one will be released from Nigerian
forces. Accepted dress must have brought to him or her to put on"

Another section says "nevertheless, I know you need my assistance, I
have mobilized these young men Valiant Purity to Assist. As trousers
belong to men, women should desist from it. No matter its style and
stop wearing anything half naked. Your sons should stop plaiting their
hair or putting ear rings or half naked [sagging].

Use this day to purify this nation, I don't need your election in Nigeria.

So far no one knows if Prophet Abraham Isaac Ogbuta is among those
apprehended by the police.
