Help! Help!! help!! WE Muslim serving our NYSC in BENUE STATE are really suffering if Our fellow Muslim Brothers, Sisters and Friends can help spread this news till it gets to right people please. Yesterday our Camp Commandant beat up MCAN Amira hitting her with a bottle on her head. WHY? because she was wearing a hijab, allowed by NYSC Htqrs as part of Muslim Women NYSC dress code. The commandant promptly asked her to remove her hijab, gave instructions to the soldiers to beat the Amir and others found praying in the mosque claiming it was for security purposes. My Muslim brothers and sisters out there, please, in the name of the Almighty Allah, help us get this news to the right people. This Camp Commandant seems so entrenched that even the NYSC State Co-ordinator couldn't do anything. We believe that the Nigerian Constitution guarentees all citizens the right to practice their religion, their dress code, so far as it is not offensive, in Nigeria. But, here we are in Benue being denied this inalieble right. Please pass on, till this reaches the right people that can do something. We cannot keep quite or stay impotent forever!!!!!!

Stop creating unnecessary alarm, NYSC camp is not a lawless and discriminating place, stay within the confine of camp code of conduct and be disciplined and no one will harass you. Moreover, we have the camp director and the state coordinator to report to and if nothing is done get across to headquarters rather than crying foul online

I will suggest that all of you should forward your complaint to the DG of NYSC.

But are you actually sure no rule was broken?

the claim should be investigated. there should be freedom of religion na! abi na for barrack d camp dey?
moreover,this excercise should be scrapped cuz its more of bad than good( serving and ex-corpers know what i mean)

What kind of comment is this? A guy complains about being discriminated against and you just want him to be quiet?
