A ridiculous country.
Major on the minor, and minor on the major.

A country ran by people with the same mentality as the Seljuks war lords of the 11 century.

By this time next year, I go don Japa.

If you catch me discussing about NIgeria again, slap me.

All I know is you can't wear such to any United States Government establishment without being turned back at the gate

It's an office not a park,

Will u dress for a job interview with tshirt and shorts Will the sister go for visa interview with spaghetti top and jeans Pls not everything is political, dress how u want to be addressed. Wearing shorts and t-shirt is for leisure or when going for recreation, not when u are going to an official function or govt establishment. They obviously can't take u serious. Has nothing to do with religion!
YES, HE CAN!
The dressing can only affect your chances of being accepted, but not to be denied access for an interview.

Guy,

Just conform. We know we are a bunch of hypocrites!!

You see those women in Abaya and Hijabs and all that...no be them holy pass but na them cover pass

You see those men in agbada and dashikis...no be them holy pass

I have seen people turned back from the passport office for wearing shorts/t-shirts but in saner climes you do not even have to go to a passport office to get a passport 10 times more powerful than our piece of shit document. I walked into a roadside photo booth, took pictures, walked to a post office, picked up a form, filled it in and sent. In less than 2 weeks, i had my passport at my doorstep.

Nigeria is designed to dehumanize you and make you feel you must suffer to get anything done

Are they going for interviews? I can dress like that to any ministry in China and be allowed to get inside, yet they are supposed to be the communist State! You guys that are desperate to force other people to tow your conservative ways need to be careful because the table can turn easily and you will be the ones complaining..

What's proper dressing?A lady was stopped at the gate of covenant university and denied entry because she was wearing Muslim-like dress.

Covenant university is private, Foreign Affairs ministry is a public space in a supposedly secular country.

That's the difference between both.

When we were still living in Europe we dress like that in summer (me and wify usually renew our student residency around August) during our visits for renewal in the commune and we never as much as get a stare let alone not attended to.

Ministry should have attended to them...because they were wrong not to have attended to them

After all, in other establishments, people are attended to irrespective of dress.

But having said that, the problem with labelling situations like this 'Sharia law' is basically overexaggeration. It also gives the idea that only those of the Muslim faith support modest dressing, and also gives the idea that dressing properly...ie wearing corporate or a proper skirt and blouse means you are observing Sharia law...or something.

The truth is, we Nigerians ought sometimes to dress modestly. Saying that does not mean I want you to bow to your new Saudi overlords or something.

My question is, if a while man or woman had dressed that way, would they have been turned back?

Dressing corporately while going for a job interview is to impress the interviewers, while a govt establishment is supposed to be open for any freaking member of that govt. It is exactly like asking a customer to dress in a particular manner before walking into a mall. The govt officials are the workers and you are the customer, it is their job to serve you regardless of the cloth you wear. Let's call a spade a spade, what they did was bad.

Yes and no. Every establishment will have some sort of regulation, a bit lax on the business/services side/front desk/shop window side of things and a bit stricter behind all that.

Most important thing is that they are published and i meets with the sensibilities of the vaat majority of its customers.

If it sounds politically correct, then you are right. There is no straight answer. One man's liberties is another's captivity.

You considered that dressing as inappropriate?? But if they were whites, it is not inappropriate and they will be allowed to enter. I pity your mentality.

Those guys didn't dress badly, that's what they call casual. It's not every meeting that is official.

To have been denied entry is even mildly. Come and and see how a girl was flogged for passing through a central mosque years back because she was on scarf with Bible and not hijjab.

The problem with Nigeria is the Religion Joker Card!
