Nollywood filmmaker, Biodun Stephen, has sparked mixed reactions online after advising women to always wear pants and bras whenever they step out, as a precaution against unforeseen incidents.

Her statement came in response to the now-viral video of Comfort Emmanson, who was dramatically removed from an Ibom Air flight on Sunday, August 10, 2025. During the scuffle, her chest was exposed, a moment that quickly spread across social media.

The incident has since stirred widespread outrage, with many Nigerians condemning the conduct of the airline’s security personnel and calling for more respectful handling of such situations.

For the Nollywood filmmaker Biodun Stephen, the viral Ibom Air drama came with an important takeaway.

In an Instagram video, she addressed the moment Comfort Emmanson’s boobs were exposed during her altercation with flight attendants and security personnel.

Stephen argued that the incident underscored the risks of stepping out braless or pantless, warning that such wardrobe choices could lead to embarrassing situations in public.

In her video, the actress also referenced past instances when she advised women to always wear underwear, but was met with criticism.
