Then why do you prescribe 4300 stroke of cane.

naptu2: The Lagos High Court ruled on Thursday, November 18, that no party or person can force Muslim girls to take off their hijab which, it maintained, is part and parcel of personal freedoms.

In October, the Lagos National Institute of Health and Technology banned Muslim students from entering classrooms, a decision backed by the state government.

Students Fatimo Abidemi Razak, Titilayo Sanni, Idiatu Asabi Ayinde and Sunbo Bada challenged the decision with the high court, asking that the ban be declared illegal and a breach of their rights.

Judge Olubunmi Oyewole of the High Court ruled that the ban was a breach of articles 38 and 42 of the Nigerian constitution.

He further said the institution failed to prove how hijab could spark a religious conflict.

The judge underscored that the institute, a public school funded by tax payers and owned by the Lagos state government, cannot operate outside the provisions of Constitution.

Refuting arguments that the students ought to abide by the institute’s regulations expressed in their admission letters, Oyewole said they did not waive their rights to their religious beliefs and practice merely because they accepted the admission letters.

sharp man: This story does not make sense. It is clearly exaggerated.

naptu2: This is one of the reasons I admired Dr Tai Solarin.

In the 1970s and '80s there was controversy over "morning assembly" in public schools. Non christians were made to pray in the christian way and non muslims were also made to pray in the muslim way at morning assembly.

Solarin was an atheist. He did not believe in God. However, at his school, Mayflower Ikenne, he established the "quiet hour". During the quiet hour, christians could go to a corner and pray in the christian way, muslims could go to a corner and pray in the muslim way and those who do not believe in God could quietly read their books.

Ngwakwe: We have not heard the principal's side of the story.

What were other teachers doing when she was flogging the little chap 1, 2, 3,4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.............43.

Haba

LagosShia: She should be fired immediately.then she should be sued for discrimination that threatens the peace of Lagos and Nigeria at large.

Failure to act by the authorities is not an option.otherwise this Christian ignorance built on fanaticism and extreme hatred for Muslims would continue.

The hater should be arrested and taken to court.and I hope one of her punishments would be to double the beating 10 times and give her 430 strokes of the cane.then according to the bible in Corinthians,she (the principal) should have her head shaved for not covering her own head.we are not living in a Christian country.

Richy.:


Are you saying that a 12 year old took 43 strokes? I went to government school. then flogging was supported. in fact teacher were not permitted to flog any student. a school sergeant was employed just to administer any kind of punishment. I cannot believe that a 12year old took 43 strokes in this GSM era when flogging is being frowned upon and she was not admitted to the hospital or even fainted.she may have been flogged which was not cool but not 43.please just count from 1 to 43.
