When reacting to story of the female corper decamped for refusing to wear trousers, the Ogun State NYSC Co-ordinator, Mrs T.I Anosike said that wearing anything outside approved
NYSC kits during the orientation programme
was not allowed in the camp. This she said
was the reason why every corps member was
made to signed undertaking on cultism and
dress code.
"Nobody asked her to leave. She was asked to
comply with the NYSC directives or leave. So
she decided to leave. When she said that she
won't comply, we asked her to put it in
writing which she did. So we didn't expel her,
she left on her own."

Is Hijab NYSC dress code? Don't get me wrong. I'm not trying to cause any religion argument here, but just trying to see if we can make aa case for that young lady that was decamped by Ogun state NYSC.

What exactly is your point ? She said skirt is against her religion. So if those masquerades are allowed, Why shouldn't skirt be allowed ?

Lets stop Double standards. If we have a law let it be the law.

If skirt is not allowed then hijab long or short, white or black and all other foreign materials should not be condoned. Q.E.D.

What divides my beloved Nigeria?!
Religious sentiments
Political sentiments
Bribery and corruption
Tribalism, to say the least. What is good for the goose, is also good for the gander.

Go and send them away.
Why do Nigerian christians like causing trouble. Muslims de go hajj as prescribed by the Qur'an, Nigerian christians too say they must go for pilgrimage in Jerusalem which is not even in their scriptures, Muslims wear hijab go NYSC camp, christians want to cause wahala by wearing skirt to camp. Is wearing of skirt anywhere part of Christianity? What sort of hypocrasy is that?

I advise christian ladies who can't wear trousers in camps to put on the hijab like those of mother Theresa.

This pratice is a double standard. The NYSC scheme has over lived its relevance and the woman who is trying to be biased in Ogun state can not try such in the Northern part of the country with the Muslim member. The law of God is more supreme than laws of men and if someone on the accounts of his or her union with God refuses what does not cause harm to his naighbour, then why cause him pain? Let me ask the Ogun state NYSC director one question; if that lady was a daughter of an army genera,your church pastor, a sitting president or top govt functionaries can she do what she did?

If the NYSC lady is intimidated into silence by the above named people, does that make this right?
It's not just the lady...many people from the army contingent there to NYSC officials had complained to the girl about her mode of dressing.

If you spent more time reading your Bible instead of moronically arguing on Nairaland, you'd see the portion in your Bible where Jesus Christ said "Render unto ceaser what belongs to Ceaser". the laws of the land must be obeyed!

You're the sentimental one, I'm a christian for pete's sake.
I do not support the use of either hijab, skirts or any other gear apart from the official nysc gear.

Look @ it this way, an hijab (tho not the official head gear of the nysc, can be tucked into the Khaki (or any top worn by the corper), and it won't hinder any physical activity the corper engages in, but a skirt...

Very wise decision for her to decamp. The NYSC dress code is stated before you apply for camp. She can go go back home, does not really matter. Secondly she was serving in Ogun state that is not a muslim state ( THANK GOD), so what was her problem? If I were to go to sokoto and put on a bum short they would probably cut my legs off. So if you want to live with the romans, you have to dress and behave like the romans. If you dont like roman laws, leave rome. Simple. You guys even messed up by posting this thread. Now she will feel she is important & that it is probably an important issue. mstweeeeeee. She can serve in maduguri on the boarders of lake chad if she wants. Nobody cares! !
