The Supreme Court has overruled Lagos State on its restriction of the use of head covering (hijab) by female Muslim students of public schools in the State.

In a split decision of five to two on Friday, a seven-member panel of the Supreme Court affirmed the July 21, 2016 judgment of the Court of Appeal, Lagos, which set aside the October 17, 2014 judgment by Justice Grace Onyeabo of the High Court of Lagos State, which upheld the hiab restriction.

Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun, who wrote the lead majority judgment, which was read on Friday by Justice Tijani Abubakar, dismissed the appeal filed by Lagos State against the 2016 judgment of the Court of Appeal, Lagos, on the grounds that the appeal was without merit.

Muslim Students in public schools in Lagos have been wearing hijab for years. The court ruling is useless. Meanwhile it should also be restricted to public schools because private schools will move against any plan to enforce it.

Next is full establishment of Sharia law not only in Lagos, but the entire south west.. No wonder MURIC/Yoruba Muslims and Tinubu are pushing for a Muslim Muslim ticket.....



Yoruba christians wake up and stop being docile.. Think about the future of your children.. Those idio*t shouting religion doesn't matter will never tolerate this if it's the other way round...



I repeat..... Yoruba Christians Wake Up!!

This is the reason to have religious balance. If the bench has more Muslim justices, there's tendency to give judgement skewed in a certain direction.

If the case lacks merit, how come it has been on since 2016?

Muslim-Muslim or Christian-Christian ticket is dead on arrival!

It is the right judgement.

If the Supreme Court had ruled against hijab, the implications of the ruling as well as the precedent set could lead to schools banning religious activities and any apparel with religious slogans on the grounds that schools are secular

Which most christians and Muslims won't like.

Secularism is great but it can have a negative effect on religious activities and beliefs. Ask American Christians.

Should not have even gone to any court in the first place.
It's pathetic the level of intolerance from the Nigerian Christians.
Even in Christian dominated societies such as UK and US, people are allowed to wear Hijab to school and work but in Nigeria where you have majority Muslims, some wants to prevent others from practicing their religious freedom.
Sad and pathetic.
