Canada's minister of defence. Dude is still a serving soldier. His religion(indian sikh) does not allow shaving of beards.

Have you seen the Saudi and Indian police force?

They can hide you inside their beards.

They are not wearing uniforms

Dumbest Analysis ever.....

charix:

This.

Also in combat, if your opponent has no hair, beard, earrings or piercings then there's nothing you can grab on to as an advantage over him/her.
When girls fight they normally grab each other's hair in an attempt to make their opponent submit quickly. If you don't believe me watch all the girl fights that litter youtube.

This is more like it

RichYoungNigger:
It all started in the USA.
During the first world war, gas masks became a necessity and in order to attain a full seal against the wearer's skin and avoid leaks, the mask must be flush against the skin, so that meant a soldiers options were either to shave the beard and avoid sucking in poison or keep your awesome beard and look cool while you get blasted in the face with a mouthful of tear gas

corruption! bribe dey inside

Lol. That's not the reason. The reason is to show ur face clearly and recognised and not faking to be another person. If u don't pull hair u can easily pull clothes. Beard doesn't have to be long and pulleable when men fights. True about woman fighting by pulling hair, it's cos they can't throw punches.

years of ogogoro consumption.

Dcaliphate:
for the police, of course its to prevent them on the roads from hiding oga's N50 in their beards, criminals...

hahaah i laugh tire for this ur comment

then I will arrange a gay for him

boolet:
hence comes shaving which would pose chopping off heads as a tougher task.

Struggling hard to understanding the relationship between shaving of facial hair and beheadment!

Hysmady:
Even Jesus grew beards like sadam ussein!

When? Which Jesus? You mean the artwork?

agongajoseph:
But Ojukwu bin get Guru Mahara ji bear bear

djraymy:
why ojukwu no dey shave?

Maybe, it's allowed back then, or he's retired when the picture was taken.

kokomilala:
It's norm universal...

sauceny:
Not just Nigeria,but other security institution around the world does same.

Not really. For example, in India, Sikhs are allowed to wear beards. Iran and Pakistan also allow it somewhat. However, GENERALLY, force men around the world are close shaven.

These tummies are massive! : The first picture comes in all the way from the Osogbo City Stadium.

Toosure70:

So it has no meaning when the greatest scientists has beard. The likes of Newton, Maxwell, Einstein, Galileo and others. What of the like prophet that has beard like the claimed picture of Jesus, Abraham, Joseph etc. Think very well there is meaning in meaningless.

so uniform personnel are not on nairaland to shed light on this issue abi they don't even know why they don't keep beard.

drmikeadams:
?.while the Nigeria police uniform is dirty.....clean beard,dirty clothes and worn out shoes...plus filthy character.

Because government provide above mentioned to them every year except beard

some Indian soldiers grow beards. former Nigerian chief of army staff Lt Gen minimah 's son is a cadet of 64RC NDA and he keeps beards

Virginkpekus:
I think it's probably for the same reason that makes me shave my kpekus!!

are you a marketer?























How market today?

Ojukwu wasn't retired when he had that forest all over his face, I have a clip before the civil war when he was still a serving officer with d Nigerian army

Lawmosh:

very true, beard is allowed in the Nigerian Navy.

How neat re they then?
I think its 4 the thing not to scratch and distract them on duty. Shkinah

Kai are u bastard? And u r expecting me to reply DAT.....?.?? Haba

It was the order given for dem.......
the reasons is that it make them look decent/polite and good appearance, not that of hooligan.

- number one, to look decent and smart. that's the aim
-two, to make every one of them be uniform. yeah, it's a team work, one person's act is everyone's act. it makes every unique person difficult to spot out during the course of their assignments. it's a risky job
-just like I said above, it's a uniform job. the same reason tattoos ain't allowed.


@op, I actually thought of this topic yesterday, and it's a coincidence I see you ask same question here.
