Someone in PDP is definitely calling the shots for CAN out of jealousy for Aregbe cos I noticed that since he started coming out of recession bit by bit, this CAN nonsense started. Just imagine CAN, Christians that are meant to be the light of the world allowing themselves be used by the devil to cause serious strife. I'm suspecting Akpabio's gang cos he was just talking about how peaceful the SW is the other day.
Will the so-called Christian students wear those garments to the market, owambes or other outings? Muslims wear hidjab everywhere. They don't just wear it to the mosque. How can you compare the two together?

Christians of nowadays really need to cover their faces in shame. Jesus must be crying in heaven by now. What a bunch of empty nut heads!

all you can bring up is to insult Me am sure if this nonsense is in the quran you won't sound this way... Anyway which version of the Bible should I read, last time I check we have so Many versions

I'm just trying to advice you and not abuse you.
Almost all versions of the bible are saying the same thing, they are just breaking it down for you to understand.
So go and study(don't just read) the bible.

Honesty007:
The envy ,Jealousies ,strife and contentions of the Moslems over christian occupied territories dates back to the Jacob and Esau story.
Till christ come and after, Muslims would always be envious at christians because they have Nothing to do with God's promise, covenant and eternal Home.
They therefore seek all means to promote their religions on earth and evangelize the earth trhough all means.
God of the christian faith never gave them any possesions on earth,hence they resort to violence antics.
Yeah they can say abram was also their father by blood, but The God of the christian faith never recognized them as sons of the promise.
Christians just free them our Jerusalem is above and free while their own saudi arabia gendereth to bondage so if they r bound by their religion,leave them.we r free not bound

Keep deceiving yourself. Jerusalem belongs to the Jews

What makes you think I don't understand what is going on in Osun?? And what makes you think I wear church robes in the first place??.

Well, like I said earlier, little drops of water make a mighty ocean. In case you don't know, I was referring to islamization of the society, not just mere individuals. The places you mentioned, UK and USA, will soon become Islamic countries. That's d subtle islamization I referred to. Slowly and slowly, they will try and tailor the societies they find themselves to the dictates of their religion. Schools affected by the ruling are owned by the government(which is secular) . Before now, I know school girls wear berets and no one has ever complained about. In a private school, all of them wear the same thing as they are stricter.
The goal of wearing a school uniform is to let the students look all the same, presenting the students as young people who are willing and ready to learn.

Now, in a situation whereby some students feel it's their right to wear what they want to school, that defeats the aim of the school uniform (that's why it's a uniform, for them to be the same).
Allowing them to get away freely with this will make it easier for them to get away with virtually anything else they might come up with in the future.

Instead of CAN contesting against the use of hijab or causing more trouble. They should have find a way to present their case and make the Muslim girls wear beret. Muslims wearing hijab doesn't stop them from wearing uniforms na. They wear it on their uniform. We are not talking of long hijab here. It's the short one that'll cover their head and their neck.

I'm still waiting for that century when UK and USA will become an Islamic country like you claim. Who get time for islamization.

Seriously i laugh when I see people saying things like islamization. Do you know how many million Christians we have in this country? And since the students started wearing their church robe. Did the governor or anyone contest their decision.

I asked you an easy question "what does it teach, and are they mandated to be a secular school by any christian governor?".

Ansarudeen is now a public school just as Baptist High school. They were all taken over in 1975 by the government and hence are now secular.

And they all teach based on the state curriculum. Both CRS and IRK are taught at the Ansarudeen school.

babajero:
My question is" what does ansar udeen teach, is it basic courses that will develop a nation or is it arabic that will be taught year in year out without any significant benefit to the society, and how many of these arabic schools has been mandated to be a secular school?".

The Muslim in the armed forces cannot wear hijab because their establishments were based on Christian Laws and doctrines. It's part of the oppression of the Muslims almost universally.

blessedvisky:

Most sensible comment here so far.

How ever, I'm tempted to agree with paulsir.

What is going on in Osun state is stealth islamisation. It's very subtle and slow rather than quick method of invading a place and forcing people to accept Islam.

In a matter of years, you'll see Muslims demanding more of "rights" according to the dictates of their religion. If their initial attempts, such as this recent case are not resisted now, then there is no hope in the years to come. Little drops make a mighty ocean.

The way some of your guys scream Islamization this, islamazation that. You sound like an unlearned person. How can that be possible in this day and age? Why aren't the Muslims demanding for Friday to be stripped off as a working day like it is on Sundays?
Why aren't the Muslims demanding for Muslims songs to be consistently sang in public schools like the way Christian songs are sang?

You should think with the the head you've got up there and not the other way round

You got it wrong at the bold part my dear. The matter was not between Muslims and Christians, the Christian community, as far as i know, were not party to the case brought against the Lagos State Govt and the Muslim Students Society of Nigeria, Lagos State Area Unit. So, it was a matter of the State Govt., vs. the MSSN, Lagos State.

Be that as it may, I think this issue of Ijab in school or not started when a teacher in a public school in Lagos State 'flogged' a female student and asked her to remove her hijab, allegedly. That was the issue of female students wearing hijab to school came to limelight. And I think nobody care more about hijab in our schools before that episode. I went to a public school, in the 90s, and this issue of hijab was not an issue.

Again, talking about missionary schools, particularly in Osun State, please note that the St. Charles Grammar School, Osogbo; The Baptist Academy; The Fakunle High School; the St. Paul's of this world, all in Osogbo, were originally missionary schools. But they were all taken over at a point by the Military Govt., then. And at that time, there was no, and there couldn't have been, any issue of hijab or no hijab.

However, now that the schools have been returned to their original owner, I suppose, then the school is at liberty to determine what you wear to their school.

As for the Christian leaders, I think they are behaving irresponsibly in this matter. The utterances and attitude doesn't depict them as religious leaders. Like someone said on this thread, the Muslims go about town with their hijab, it's an everyday attire for them. But do the Christians and others wear their choir robe everywhere they go? Even Mary, mother of Christ, wears the hijab.

Will the so-called Christian students wear those garments to the market, owambes or other outings? Muslims wear hidjab everywhere. They don't just wear it to the mosque. How can you compare the two together?

Christians of nowadays really need to cover their faces in shame. Jesus must be crying in heaven by now. What a bunch of empty nut heads!

I don't buy that as a balanced view. where other group wears it is immaterial. the issue is that what is good for goose is good for gander. In fact what that judicial interpretation says is that I can found my own religion today and decide what to wear to school in line with the rules of my religion
similarly existing religion can always review their laws on what they wear.
Next time we should think twice be4 we begin to appoint people as Judges and Governors

You should know school is not a place you practice your religion.

The Qu'ran mandated moslem girls to wear hijab, not the government. There should be a status quo. The government isn't suppose to be favorable to any religion, plain and simple.

Any moslem parent who want his or her child to wear hijab, should send that child to a moslem school where they wear hijab. Its that simple.

so ur point is that wearing hijab to schools by muslim female students is a process of islamizing the country, if that's ur point then that's not how to start going about it, u start by demolishing all the mosques in SE/SS and impeach all muslim officers in the country including the president and un-hijabing all those muslim women in public places. That's a more effective approach to unislamizing the country.

You seem to be saying something I can reason with finally.

The case should be that they (all the students) should wear the same thing!!! Not that a particular set of students will add to what has been declared as standard for those schools.

The government of Osun is secular, all its rules should be secular also.
If this hijab case is allowed to stay, it's only a matter of time before Muslims start demanding that their boys in SSS classes don't shave their beards or start wearing trousers that won't reach their ankles. You can call me anything you think, it doesn't change anything.

You also said you're waiting for the time that UK and USA will become Islamic states. Well, it might not happen during our lifetimes, (hey, you could live tíll a 100 years or less) however, the seeds of the intention has been sown already. 15 years ago, there were very few mosques in western Europe. That's not the case today. What will those places look like 200years from now??. What sort of society will it be? Societies are dynamic. Laws, rules and policies are made based on the people in that society.

I also laugh when I see people who think islamisation isn't real or happening. It's not about just one individual, it's a aim shared by a large group of people. Now imagine a society that has 98% Muslim population. Of course things like this Osun case can't even come up because of the society. What makes you think a society that started out secularly, such as the USA, can't become Islamic societies where everyone has to conform or support it?? Think about the future Bro.

If this case is allowed to pass, it will spread to other schools and on it goes.

I hope you see the point I'm trying to make

Buhari as the military leader asked his Christian domestic staff not to come to work on Sundays. His Muslim staff got angry and demanded to be excused on Fridays too.
Buhari told the Muslim Staff that he read it in the Bible that Christians should dedicate Sundays as holy day for Him alone. He then asked them to show him a portion in the Qu'ran where God asked Muslims not to work on Fridays, if they showed him he will allow them to go on Fridays too. They couldn't show him anywhere in the Holy Book. That was how question killed answer on that day! That's my Leader!
Many things we do in Nigeria that are absolute nonsense. It is compulsory for Muslims to go to Mecca and Perform Hajj, it is a pillar if you can afford it. But Christians too troop into Jerusalem as if there's any meaning to it in the Bible. They will now call themselves JP. Chai! Nothing is bad in Tourism But God didn’t say you should go to Jerusalem. Jesus said "the Jerusalem above is the mother of us all"...."we have taken away the first to establish the second".....
Again, it is religious right of a Muslim woman to wear Hijab if she chose to. Is it in the Bible that Christians should wear Choir gowns too when going out?
We are too intolerant.
Christians are angry because Muslim girls want to wear Hijab in Osun. Some Muslims too are angry that missionaries want their school back in Oyo......
What a people

The few months spent as a student of The Redeemed Bible College (RCCG Area Headquarters, Ita Elewa, Ikorodu, Lagos State) in 2004 taught me a few things about checking for facts beyond what journalism teaches. It could mean all the difference in spiritual warfare matters. This is equally important, as I have since come to learn, in many areas of life as well. Due to that well-enriching programme, it was within a month of being part of the MA (Theology) class I almost completed my house in Ikorodu, Lagos State which son of man had abandoned since 2001. But that is a story for another day, soon.
A number of friends have either joined a lynch-mob trying desperately to crucify Osun State Governor, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, or kept a measured distance as they may not want to be ‘stained’ by allegations of religious bias directed at a leader, who is expected to be neutral given his position as father to all. Aregbesola, according to the opposition politicians, who initiated the current campaign a few years back, is an Islamic extremist bent on foisting his religion on Osun State. They also claim the governor initiated the wearing of Hijab in Osun State schools.
Apart from the two allegations above, there are claims the man has not done anything worthwhile to justify his years as a sitting governor. They believe everything positive about Aregbesola is being hyped. A senior figure in Nigeria’s pro-democracy movement even wrote on a WhatsApp forum a few days ago that all the schools the governor built in Osun State have been overtaken by weeds as students are not there at all. Of course, this friend has sympathy for failed gubernatorial candidate of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Iyiola Omisore. Thus, his argument, despite the untruths it contains, is understandable.
But this piece will not go into the many projects already executed by Aregbesola despite the paucity of funds in a state that is largely a civil service one. It is my intention to shine some light on the Hijab-wearing controversy that the Osun State chapter of Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) is being used to push by its underwater drummers. Unfortunately, they have succeeded in pulling the wool over the eyes of many by carefully concealing facts that would have exposed the supposed Christian group as pawns in the hands of failed politicians desperate to get back to reckoning as another round of election approaches in Osun State.
Fact 1: The schools which CAN is claiming belong to its members are actually public schools, having been taken over by the Western State Government in 1975. The schools belong to the Osun State Government today, being one of the states constituting the old Western State. But unlike Northern Nigeria, where such schools had their names changed, probably to reflect the new ownership, Western State did not remove the original names. For instance, late Major Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu, went to St. John’s College, Kaduna. The school has since been renamed Rimi College, Kaduna, because it is now a public institution. That the names, such as Baptist High School, Iwo, are being retained does not make the schools that of the original owners. They are now government properties, a fact that Osun State CAN did not disclose.
The Administration of former Osun State Governor, Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola, gave further teeth to this policy with its “Directives of the state government” in 2004 concerning Education Policy in the state, published by the Ministry of Education. Article 8 of the 2004 directives states clearly that, “there are no mission schools presently in Osun State as all schools have been taken over by government in 1975.” Osun State CAN knew about this, but kept the fact from public view.
Fact 2: The insidious propaganda initiated by Osun State’s failed politicians listed Aregbesola as the initiator of Hijab in schools. This has been the campaign slogan of Osun State CAN and its supporters. But a discerning mind would have discovered either through court papers or quality media reports that this is a fallacy being propagated by perfidious persons to gain political advantage. In a detailed report by ThisDay newspaper’s Bureau Chief in Osogbo, Yinka Kolawole, on 4 June 2016, the journalist wrote, among others, that,
“The Osun State Muslim Community on February 14, 2013, dragged the state government to the court, seeking an order of the court to allow female Muslim students enjoy their fundamental rights by granting them order to use hijab in public schools. The suit which was directly instituted against the state government, was also joined as respondents, the state Commissioner for Education, Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice.
“But, the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, its chairman and others, voluntarily joined as respondents. The applicants, in a 44 paragraph affidavit in support of their motion, applied for the enforcement of their fundamental rights pursuant to Sections 38 and 42 of the constitution. The applicants through their lead-counsel, Kazeem Odedeji, told the court that female Muslim students were being harassed by the fourth and fifth respondents, insisting that such was a clear discrimination and infringement on their fundamental rights.
“Odedeji who premised his argument on a decision of a Court of Appeal, Ilorin, between the Provost, College of Education and one Basirat Saliu, noted that female Catholics wear hijab, while Mary, the mother of Jesus always appear on picture with hijab on her head. Odedeji also explained that his prayer was to allow female Muslim students wear hijab in some schools where they were being denied, noting that they had been wearing it in accordance with the 2004 Directives of the state government.”
Stemming from this newspaper report, which was based on court records, the facts established include proof that Aregbesola did not initiate the wearing of Hijab in any form. It was the Osun State Muslim Community, relying on Oyinlola’s 2004 policy, that initiated a suit as far back as 2013 to ensure that its female children are allowed to wear Hijab in public schools, not mission schools. This record also displayed proof that Aregbesola’s administration initially sought to restrain this, thus the harassment mentioned by the petitioners. These facts were hidden from the public by Osun State CAN, which should have displayed exemplary conduct through its leaders by stating clearly for all to know that the schools in question are not Christian/Mission ones, but actually belong to the Osun State Government.
For me, two options are open to Osun State CAN, if partisan politics will allow its leadership to faithfully serve the groups it claims to represent. The first, arising from the victory of Osun State Muslim Community at the court, is to approach a superior court in order to overturn an undesirable judgment. This is a far better approach than the use of children in resorting to self-help against the judgment of a court. The second option, which, to me, is even better than an appeal is to work on lobbying the Osun State Government into releasing the contentious schools back to their original owners. Some states have done this already. But it was not at the instance of Government. Powerful lobbyists went to work on behalf of cerebral Christian groups, who knew their onions. Osun State CAN surely have educated and well-experienced members among its ranks. Instead of the current Jankara approach, which will certainly not yield any fruitful result, why not borrow a leaf from the success stories of others to get what they want?
But, there is a very sad aspect to the whole drama. Religion of any kind forbids lying and lending yourself to be used to aid liars. An image of public schools being turned over to Muslims have been painted in the minds of many by Osun State CAN. From the facts above, that is a lie from the pit of hell! There are no mission schools among the ones in contention in Osun State today. They are all public schools, and have been so since 1975. Osun State CAN lied, lent itself to be used by politicians for lies and deceived a lot of people in the process. The conscience of these so-called men of God should worry them that they are doing everything possible to ridicule the name of God, who admonished them through the Holy Bible not to lie or lend themselves to be used by liars.
A few words to the mischief makers desperately doing everything possible to paint the Osun State Governor as a covet extremist. These are mainly from my posts to Facebook. Aregbesola is passionate about his religion, Islam. But he is one moderate Muslim that many erroneously see as a fundamentalist. His Christian friends feel very much at ease with him. But his best friends are Yoruba self-determination activists along with quality comrades from other climes. Initially, the cousins of Boko Haram in Osun State claimed Aregbesola is not a genuine Muslim. Their grouse? A quality hand of fellowship was extended by the governor to practitioners of African Traditional Religion. This, they kicked against.
Enter the Christian bigots, who claimed Ogbeni wants to foist Islam on the whole state. Not many of them know he has quality ‘SU’s as blood brothers and sisters. Some are even Pastors today, having left Islam for Christianity. The change has never brought about any strain in their relationship. Instead, Ogbeni believes each person is entitled to finding God in his/her ways. So, each time the fundamentalist tag is used to describe him, I always laugh because those who do so may have never interacted with Aregbesola. They form opinion based on what his political opponents push out and a sense of hidden disdain for Muslims, who are not shy to wear the religion on their sleeves. He is such a Muslim. His dressing, mien, carriage and words carry Islam in almost every way. But he does not force it on anybody. Has never done so.
Immediately you see his picture or video, the first thing that strikes the person is like, “Oh! This one is a Muslim?” And for a seating Governor in a Southern Nigeria, where it is assumed only Christians are everywhere with a small mix of Muslims, it is natural that a misgiving that cannot be immediately explained is shown. Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo’s endorsement of Aregbesola towards his re-election, when the Osun State PDP sought to malign him as an extremist using the same set of Christian leaders campaigning against him today, readily comes to mind. Osinbajo gave what I will describe as the best description of Aregbesola so far. And the vice president is an RCCG Pastor.
Aregbesola has no blame in the matter at hand. A hidden disdain for practising Muslims, who are very proud of their religion is the root of the propaganda by underwater drummers of the governor’s critics, who believe he cannot be tackled on performance in office, that provided ammunition against this quality Yoruba Leader. He is loved by his people. Progressive minded elements love him more. He should just be encouraged to develop the state or be left alone.
Just my two cents!

You obviously love making assumptions for others.
Did you see it anywhere in my post that I asked for unislamizing the country?

Nigeria is already being slowly islamised. Covert policies and even more open ones have existed in times past to make Islam more revelant,recognised and respected in the society.

This Osun case is just one of the new ways being used.
The sooner people know, they soon people can act to stop it.
If stopping islamization is your own definition of "unislamizing", then
