Slankey: Some Nigerians are still backward in this 21st century. She refused to wear trousers because of her faith? What about there that wore it. I wish shelves in Finland or even Winnipeg in Canada where the weather is a slow as -40, nobody will tell her enforce she jumps to wearing trousers. This is hypocrisy. She should rot wherever she's decamped to! Kmfft!!!

safarigirl: Why infringe on her 'rights'? Make dem leave her, by the time she has to do the tight-rope walk, shebi she will climb a ladder and be high up, then everyone can see what's underneath.


Foolish girl! NYSC has been there wayyy before her father even sabi wetin woman be and it's been the same, na she wan come form activist pass....sister you're on your own, ask your pastor, even his sister wore trousers for her own camp, various female Pastors wore trouser, no be only you.

If you check now, she's either a graduate of polytechnic or studied one mumu course like Guidance and Counseling

Akpa ife: Man make u no wear woman garment n woman make u no wear man cloth dats wht d bible said respect d law of God n fear God,human u dey hear?

sureteeboy: some of you don't know what you are writing. It's a great pity billions of people are going to hell. Who told you wearing a trouser is allowed in christianity. Deut 22:5 says " A WOMAN SHALL NOT WEAR THAT WHICH PERTAINETH UNTO A MAN...... .
It's a great pity this country is in what it is by just copying a nation controlled by devil (USA) .do you obey God or the government?

Damitism: Go and read deuteronomy 22:5

50calibre: This NYSC people should learn to respect people's religious beliefs and choices.

khadaffi: This is a simple matter. The dress code for NYSC includes trousers and she and her pastors are aware of this so since she ain't ready to wear one she should have applied for exemption on that ground.

blamelessly: Abeg ppl quoting Deut 22:5, should get their facts right. In that Age, men were not wearing trousers, they wore long gowns. Trousers came into fashion much later after d bible was written.

#80million:
okay

Acidosis: God punish the coordinator and those praising the barbaric act of the person ignoramus brainless coordinator...


Why on earth would any bastard in a bastard dominated country like ours deprive one of his/her faith??

What happens to those reverend sisters on campus, medical schools with a dress code?

How about those NTA female journalists who wear hijab?

What happens to northern secondary school female students?

How about muslim corp members?


The fact that you're comfortable wearing a trouser like your husband doesn't mean those against it are wrong or dum. b... It is what they believe and whether some will go to hell is no one business to judge...

The only problem is: It will be too late to change your believe by the time the truth is unveiled.. be it skirt or trouser or wrapper or hijab or gown or scarf or brazillian or togolese..

ighoosagie:
U no man and woman garment?
Go wear woman trouser go church since all trouser na for men. Metcheeeew

Cori_corde: That verse was referring to people who dressed themselves to look like men, for perverse reasons. Besides, I don't think God looks at us and notices our clothes. Clothes don't matter to God, do they?

alpha conde: ABEOKUTA – Reactions have started trailing the decamping of
2013 Batch A, female corps member, Ms Tolu Ekundayo, by the
National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, Ogun State for wearing skirt
at the Shagamu orientation camp.
In a press conference organised by Ekundayo’s church, Faith Revival
Apostolic Church, FRAC, in Lagos, the expelled corps member said
she was asked to leave the camp at about 11.00pm on March 8,
2013 by the Ogun State NYSC Co-ordinator, for her refusal to
put on trousers.
She explained that her refusal to wear trousers was not in
disobedience to NYSC authorities but in line with her belief and faith
in God.
Also speaking, Apostle Paul Adenuga condemned the manner in which
Ekundayo was expelled from the camp in the dead of the night
without considering her safety and called on the Director-General
of NYSC and the federal government to look into the matter
before it gets out of hand.
“I call on Nigerians, mostly Christians that stand for the truth, not
only to jointly condemn this barbaric and bestial act but to engage in
constructive dialogue with the concerned authority for the change
of such policy if it is official.”

So is trouser man's cloth?

What about shirts and t-shirts? are dey 4 man or woman?



Can u tell me where d Bible says "And the trousers shall be for men" or is men's trouser same with women trouser

Why are women wearing shirt/t-shirt? that one too should be men's cloth na

see d way u are judging people to hell...SMH 4 u...

eforce: i have never had of her church but all MFM, deeper life and CAC members have been serving for years and wearing the trousers, even NCCF doesn't allow sisters to wear any other trouser apart from the NYSC trouser. It is not her fault, it is the effect of religion which is key in Nigeria. Left to me, everybody including those wearing hijabs that cannot dress properly should be sent out of camp, this is a paramilitary excercise and there is a required outfit.

OlowoTee:
That same Bible is still applicable regardless of the transition. Bringing it down to our culture...we all know what belongs to men, women. What the bible is asking for is that let there be clear distinction in our dress sense. Let the woman not put on what pertains to the man.. And vice versa. Maybe we shouldn't go too far by comparing our culture and dispensation with others. Simple obedience to His word in our 'context', in our dispensation is what God demands, and these are not grievous nor too much of a ask, right? Shalom.

50calibre: This NYSC people should learn to respect people's religious beliefs and choices.

cyril83: hypocrisy is a pretense of having a virtuous character, moral or religious beliefs or principles, etc., that one does not really possess while resilence is tendency to cope with stress and adversity. Stop taking ojo for aina.
