babaskool:
This matter is actually very simple and straightforward than it is being made to be.
Firstly Miss Firdaus get yourself a good lawyer, instruct him to bring an application for enforcement of your fundamental rights via the FREP rules 2009.

One of the prayers you would be seeking as a relief is that the actions of staff of the council of legal education on the day of your call to bar infringed on your right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion

Please remind your lawyer to be reasonable and only ask that you may be called at the next call to bar which is April 2018.

Also please tell him to institute your case in the Federal High court and should only make a case against the council of legal education and not the body of benchers (the body is the highest supreme body in the land ) they might feel offended

Kind regards
Akinola Samuel Eluyefa

Does this apply to me a Muslim getting a bank loan and being exempted from paying the interest cause it infringes on my freedom of thought , conscience and religion too ?

No religious sentiment required. I defend women's rights/choice to dress half naked, and I will also defend their right/choice to dress modestly. I do not object when colleagues wear risque clothing and yards of human hair, and I expect the same courtesy to be extended to those that choose to be modest or to conceal their hair.

If this can lead to an overhaul of the dress code, so be it. Female lawyers are also not allowed to wear trousers.

SurePresident:
Most Chriatians are selfish fools that'll rather betray and sell the future of their Children and unborn Generation to moslems in the name of maintaining a non-existent peace. Judgement of the CREATOR of all and Thunder shall destroy every selfcentred Christian that has cowardly refused to fight to secure the future of their unborn Generation. GOD Bless Donald Trump, he knows you can't use peace to tackle moslems, if Israel had not been giving them back their wickedness and distructions, they would have wiped out the Hebrews from Earth by now. No matter how holy u claimed to be, the Book of Revelation 21:8 makes it very clear that "the cowardly fearful Christians would have their place in Hell Fire" They shall be roasted to ashes.

You've settled the matter.

Nigerians are too sentimental.

You must abide by the rules that govern an institution.

Being a lawyer is a privilege and not a right.

Mynd44:

There is a dress code, she knows about this code, did not fight it, she willingly registered to become a lawyer under this set of codes and she signed up without issues and then decide to start a fight in the end.

If you knew you won't be able to keep the laws, why did you apply?

Muslims as a principle do not work in alcohol companies but she wants to prove a point

Seems you are a good lawyer. Can i contact you for a legal case (Industrial) against a company? Pm please

Suffice to say that those people are just being silly. How can you compare the dressing of a particular religion with the dressing of denominations of another religion, after all as a singer said *" ororo no be crude oil, puss cat yato si Tiger "* Hijab is not an occasional dress won by Muslims whenever they feel like or when going to the mosque alone, it's something they wear everywhere and are known for in the World all over. Cele people only wear the Suntan when going to church or for church program, they don't wear it to work. If they wore the Suntana in Europe, some one would definitely as them what religion them if it's a religiius outfir? For crying out loud, there's a Cele member amongst the employees in my office and she doesn't wear Suntana to work. It is also only when they are wearing the Suntana that they don't wear shoes. To make matters worse, Cele members are not complaining of any violation.
I am here telling you that my right has been violated and you are telling me that someone who is not complaining, that her rights are being violated as well, so therefore , my rights deserve no attention! What kind of silly analogy lacking logic or jurisprudence is this?
Even the Ifa worshippers don't wear Ifa clothes any how, they only wear it during festivals. It is only the Ifa priests and priestesses that wear Ifa clothes every wear they go.
It's just people showing pure Islamophobia. Some people are disgusted by the sight of the Hijab and would rather call the Hijab an indecent dressing and bum shots decent dressing.

Y'all were saying?

cooljoe:
so wats ur opinion or stance? she should be allowed to wear. her hijab and be called? if answer is in the affirmative, then I ask, what about them reverend sisters, should they olso be allowed to where their veils? should d Jew be allowed to wear his kufi? don't u think d c2b will look more like a circus if ol ds is allowed? cos surely u can't only permit 4 Muslims alone nd ignore d oda religions, even he/she who practices. African traditional system.

But this girl is not serious oo

So you got a job with the bank, and you were asked to dress coperately ( suit and tie). You now wear agbada to work the next day claiming you know your right

Madam eez like there something wrong with your brain

seunmsg:



The position of the law as decided in the case is very clear and ordinarily, this should settle the entire argument but the religion dimension to it won't allow most people to be rational. Religion is what is driving the controversy and not logical reasoning. I just hope the law school won't allow itself to be blackmailed into submission.

IAM 100% PERCENT BEHIND FIRDAUSI AMASU .ISLAM IS NOT A NEW RELIGION .YOU ALL KNOW THAT CIVERING OUR HAUR IS NOT OPTIONAL ITS A DIVINE LAW ( AM NOT CALLING ALL OTHERS SUNNERS FOR NOT COVERING,; MAY ALLAH FORGIVE US ALL IT WAS BEYOND THEM)
LOOKING AT FIRDAUSI DRESSING AS FAR AS AM CONCERNED SHE ABiDED By all requirement she even tucked in the veilso what the hell is the problem ?
How does. Her dressing affect legal system in Nigeria?is Nigeria now saying Islam is not recognised becasue to deny our dressing is to deny our existence
If the nuns can provide evidence that its in thdbuble to cover their. Heads thdthey should go-ahead and also they can tuck in neatly like masu did

inshaa Allah ,amasu will win this

She abides by the dress code 100% all she did was cover her hair .is it a sin to cover hair ? Is there a written law that states she should leave her hair open?
Mynd44 respect your self and as a mod its best you keep quiet over sensitive matters as this .

Mynd44:

This is the NLS rules as regards dressing to call to bar. It has been for years and she knows it.

It is not compulsory to be a lawyer if you find your religious beliefs cannot be fitted with it. Muslims stay away from tobacco companies for a reason

Mynd44:

This is a screenshot of the regulation saying that the hijab is npt allowed.

Fight the system, go against the dress code.

Do not try to change one part of it to suit you.

This issue is not sensitive, it is straight forward

I hope the law school changes. There are a lot of laws there that are crazy and need to be reviewed the dresscode is one and the dresscode needs to go. But people are not assking for it to go, they want a pass for hijab which is just silly

lazygal:




Mynd you just gave me a good point in your effort to be bad ...
Law school has recognised that she can wear hijab by the dressing code in which they said ears must show abi this applied es to Muslim sisters wearing hijab that means. They indirectly approved but however said ears must show !so that means Firdausi can wear hijab but her ears should show ..no problem ....


It also says for capturing there fore Muslim ladies can appear in hijab when its time for capturing they will then reveal their ears as international passport capturing is done
