While speaking with Journalists, one of  the member  of the sect  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].
