The security team attached to the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) Camp along the Lagos-Ibadan expressway have prevented Muslim ladies who adorn the Hijab from entering their premises for the registration of National Identity Number (NIN).

RCCG is one of the enrolment centres accredited by the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) in Ogun State.

Muslim News findings revealed that the management of the Church had instructed its security team not to allow Muslim ladies in Hijab enter the premises during the NIN registration.

Many victims told our correspondent that they were turned back at the gate over refusal to remove their hijabs as they tried to beat the February 9 deadline.

It would be recalled that the FG had in mid-December, 2020 directed that all SIM cards be linked to the National Identity Number (NIN).

To ensure that no Nigerian is deprived from the exercise, the National Task Force on NIN and SIM Registration announced that the December 30 deadline has been extended to February 9, 2021 for those without NIN.




But many Muslim ladies who reside around the RCCG camp area expressed their displeasure over what they termed “discrimination against the hijab which violates their fundamental rights.”

Risikat Agbabiaka told Muslim News that she was stopped from entering the premises on Thursday because of her Hijab, saying, “I could have gone to Owode-Obafe LGA but it is far from my house. The only accredited centre in my area is RCCG camp.

“Unfortunately, the church security official prevented me from going in. He asked me to remove my Hijab but I declined. So, I left.”



Another victim, who identifies herself as Fatimah confirmed the news to Muslim News on Friday, saying they were not allowed to use the Hijab while in the Church premises for the NIN registration.

According to her, “This is very wrong. I am highly disappointed. And I don’t really blame them because they don’t really like us. But I put the blame on the NIMC who authorised them to be doing the registration in their Church.

“I’m using this medium to call on the Federal Government, particularly the Honourable Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, to delist Churches or any other religious organisations who discriminate against members of other faiths from the enrolment centres or any other government exercises.”

A security official who spoke with Muslim News on condition of anonymity confirmed the report, saying the “No Hijab” order was an instruction from the management of the Church and it is their duty to follow it.


“I didn’t make the law. I am only enforcing it. No Hijab is allowed in the Church premises during or after NIN registration. If you have issues with the instruction, come to the Church Secretariat,” he added.

It insensitive for NIMC to establish a registration center in the premises of a religious organization without giving alternative to others in the same locality.

When it comes to intolerance, Christians are number 1 in Nigeria.

The only reasonable post you made is in your second paragraph.

It is so unreasonably insensitive for that kind of secular registration for different religions to be stationed in a religious place of worship.

Would women with their hair opened be allowed to enter a mosque environment to register if the registration is centered in a mosque or people entering with footwears?

No.

But one question why can you always see evil in their eyes.

They never smile, they are never happy or just normal, you can always see hate, disappointment, disapproval,
Everything Haram, haram

Malaysia that was making guy as the only peaceful islamic nation terrorists have started striking and radicalisation is in the horizon after one flood the islamists said Allah is punishing them for being open minded and liberal guess what?

They now have their own version of our Hisbah(islamic police) they go round checking for ridiculous things

Instead of asking people have you eaten? Do you want job? No na to see who dey follow who for community

Which man dey toast which girl, who hold hands, who kiss bring dem make we tawarsh dem flog dem wella Hadi lashing and serious canning

Na wa for dem oh

Why not demand for a centre around MURIC complex?

WE ARE CALLING UNTO NIMC TO URGENTLY CHANGE THE REGISTRATION CENTER OR WE WILL CHANGE ALL OUR REGISTRATION CENTERS TO MOSQUE.

l hand over this case to MURIC.

Why would government officials put such center in a mosque? It is wrong to put such registration center in a place of worship in the first place.

Ok

Your last question is the real thing !

Will Muslims also allow people to enter their mosques without hijabs, and with shoes on their legs ?

We all know the answer !

They would have done the worst !

Well all the same, let love lead !

Aunty, when you're in Rome, you act like a Roman or get the hell out. Nobody forced you to go there in the first place. You could have gone elsewhere. I'm sure that's not the only reg. center in your locality or whole state?

Your complaints would be justified if the scenario changed and the reg centre was sited inside a mosque, would you allow me to bounce in with my Timberlands and baggy shorts on?

Playing the victim card is what y'all do best but you'd do worse if the coin is flipped. And yeah, talking about tolerance, it encompasses respecting the rules and principles of others and not necessarily the flawed picture of tolerance y'all have in your heads smh

Let them remove their hijab nah or better still go to other registeration centers. They just want to cause another religious tension in Nigeria soon the muric man will come out barking like a mad dog.

Is the center in the church or within the church premises?

Nigerians will always find way around
balderdash

If such center is established within a mosque premises anybody can come in and register

Join Boko Haram!
That seems more effective

Story
On a normal day
A Christian wouldn't even go inside a mosque premises
Even if you are registering for heaven there.

Don't know why this Muslim won't just stay one place,in there space
Just like a Christan going inside a shrine to register for NIN or whatever

You wan become the Boko Haram to the Yorubas?
Go to the North to practice your intolerance.

Anyways, RCCG should thread with caution.

Historically religion has killed more people than cancer and HIV...

Nonsense and religion...

Good for them..

We Will Do That Exactly To Them...

We will Block Them...

Any girl without HIJAB 'VEIL' Will be rejected..

But from the bible..

And every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered–it is just as though her head were shaved. 6 If a woman does not cover her head, she should have her hair cut off; and if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut or shaved off, she should cover her head

Corinthians 11:3-7 – 3

Listen to this stupidity! Anyone who is going for biometric capture, wether for Driver's license, international passport, permanent voter's card is supposed to display the natural appearance of their face without any covering or disguise.

Go blow ur self up... Bokoharam...
What will you guys do?
Enough of all this stupid threat...

I can see a lot of Hatred being expressed here,
Wearing Hijab is not a crime nor a sin.
But depriving someone the right to carry out his/her statutory right is wrong.

This is a secular country, why have a registration center in the church in the first place, why did the church allowed it in their premises if they knew they don't want non Christians in their premises.

But considering the fact that their is deadline and denying others the right to register is an act of wickedness.

MURIC is behind this useless news
