A recent controversy surrounded the renown educational institution, The Institute of Business Management (IoBM) regarding the dress code policy that caused harassment of a member of the visiting faculty by the university’s security in charge.
The Institute took action and fired the official. The entire incident was making the rounds on social media and seems to have caught the attention of Senator Sherry Rehman. She decided to raise her concerns on the issue but called out the wrong university on the matter!
Instead of IoBM, the Senator asked IBA to respond to her query. Here’s what she said:
“What is IBA promoting?? A dress code and moral policing for women?”
However, she wasn’t spared by the Twitter brigade!
When your country’s senator doesn’t know the difference between IBA and IOBM 🤷🏽♀️ tsk @sherryrehman pic.twitter.com/VQ8Ea6OKvC

Your tweets matter for public perception! Be Careful, it is not related to IBA! Such ignorance already rained your party performance.

After the plethora of tweets she received, the politician realized her mistake and sent out an apology through her official Twitter account.
My apologies this isn’t IBA. Relieved to hear that but the point is why are Institutions so unregulated that they can do this ? IOBM pl spk https://t.co/sNDuzYraXn
