A Kenyan university has apologised after photos circulated online of a banner on campus that blamed rape on how women choose to dress.
The Co-operative University of Kenya acknowledged that the claims on the poster – that “indecent dressing leads to sexual harassment and rape” – were false.
It said the “misleading and highly regrettable” banner encouraging a dress code for students had been put up without its approval by a student body.
“We wish to reaffirm our commitment to ensuring that all forms of gender-based violence and harassment are eradicated,” the university’s statement read:
