Mynd44: Lmaoooooo.
I am not even anti-hijab or any crap like that. My view is that the law school uniform is dumb and silly and should go which is what you should fight for.
Asking NLS to keep their uniform and make allowances for special people based on belief is wrong.
It is their rule. As long as that rule stays, every asoect should stay else, we will have Anarchy. I'm not even against anything anyone chooses to wear or not to wear. But those who wear what they want to wear shouldn't be discriminated against. You saw the pictures I shared. I've always told my lawyer friends that I'm mad that they force people to dress in white and black - throwing away freedom for "force" as lawyers is bad. |

Mynd44: In the tenets of the Celestial church of Christ, wearing black is not acceptable at all(see attached image) Either as an undergarment or a main garment. It is not about the bible. Yes! I agree. Do they dress in white garment everyday or they do that just for the church programme? Is it written in the Bible to always dress in white garment like it's written in the Quran for Muslims to wear hijab? It's the right of the Cele people to wear their garment and this right is enshrined in the constitution - they should wear it anywhere, this is what I stand for. Mynd44: Some Muslims do not wear hijab so the argument of whether or not it is the bible does not count.
Some hijabis were at the same event and they followed the rules of the profession Those that do not wear do that on their own and cannot be used to define or measure those that wear. In my university days, we had girls on campus who always appear as non-Muslims in their dress, but when it's time for prayers, they bring their hijab out to observe salat. It goes to tell you that even those who do not wear know the place of it in Islam and can't condemn this lady in question cos it's religious and at the same time constitutional. Mynd44: You mentioned laws. I guess this whole thread is predicated on constitution.
Lets break it down, being a lawyer is NOT a right, it is a privilege. A privilege you get by following a strict set of rules. It is the same as when the military says no facial hair. This is where the contradiction and open disregard for the grandnum lies. That statement up there is a "mind" statement and it's not a law or a rule. This is like my Alma mater telling us "we are naturally ahead" , and we took to heart and it became our chief metaphor. Mynd44: If you want to be a lawyer, you have these laws to obey. So in order to enjoy the priviledge of being called to bar, you must wear so so so. Your rights are not included here where are the "laws" gotten from? This is in clear disagreement with a provision of the constitution. |

5.Sikhs in the US army 6. A police officer in canada 7. Hijab approved by Scotland police as uniform option 8. Another UK Sikh judge
The list is endless. The question is, why are we acting as if we are better than those who sold these things to us?

Mynd44: Uniforms are there for a reason. Take that away and we will descend into chaos. You're right. Mynd44: Celestial Church of Christ members are not allowed to wear black at all. Imagine what will happen if we say "lets allow the hijabi" based on her religion. Do we do the same for the Cele members? The only difference here is that, we are not talking about "Sunday uniform" , but a dressing considered a way of life by a religion. If it's written in the Bible of the cele people that they should dress like that everyday of their lives, let them have it. Our laws must be seen to house our diversity in religion and culture - it must not be static. Mynd44: We can make a case for the total removal of the uniform as it creates an environment where you cannot practice your freedom of religion and expression but to make a case where we will allow the uniform and allow hijabis is not going to end well. To address this, I have some pictures for you. I saw them somewhere. 1. A Sikh judge in the UK wearing his turban in a judicial function 2. US army regulations on hijab. 3. A Minnesota police officer 4. An Australian military captain and an engineer.

kjhova: Brother, my comment goes to you as well as @SalamRushdie and @Caseless;
Indeed there is so much inadequacies, inefficiencies and improper acts in the system which the government can step in to help correct. However, we must bear in mind that our electricity sector is now 100% private sector driven and based on preset rules under the MYTO 1 & 2 agreements.
The real challenge then is the original privatisation process and the rules set for the private investors and the adequacy or otherwise of the supposed Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC). What milestones were set for the would be Gencos & Discos to meet after acquiring the electricity assets they bid for? Essentially, today, Nigeria's generation and distribution capacities have barely expanded more than 20% since the "successful" privatization in 2011! Where are we going to? The companies we sold our electricity assets to are all SPVs that didn't even exist as a corporate entity until the bid for our assets started!
Today, our national generation capacity is 7,000MW according to president Buhari. We loose close to 2,000MW of this due to max transmission capacity of 5,000+ according to this report. And then, the discos reject above 2,000MW on the average as we have read severally which effectively means a nation of 167million people at the very least live on about 3,000MW of electricity!! To put this dilemma in proper perspective, The University of California, Berkeley campus utilize 6,000MW of electricity as far back as 2008!!
7 years ago, the BRICS countries set themselves a minimum electricity consumption density of 1MW/1,000 population which they have all done well to meet (although S/Africa and India are still a little short of the target). If we borrow the BRICS target as a means to measure Nigeria's condition, we will require 167,000MW to be were S/Africa and India are today. We have only achieved 1.7% of this as at 2017!
To achieve the above stated target, we require investments of up to $65Billion over 10 to 15 years period. That is a minimum of $4.2Billion (N1.5Trillion) p.a. for 15 years! This country currently does not have that kind of money and the SPVs we sold our assets to don't have anywhere near such funds. For us to be able to raise these sums in the international market, Nigeria's political, economic and survival ratings will have to improve tremendously for the world to trust us with such long term funds.
We have a looooong way to go, to be very frank!! This is more than a post, but deserves a place in a national daily as an article. Just like I said earlier, everything was wrong with the privatization and those who got the deal as DISCOs. I was thinking we were losing just 2k, but I just realized we lose more than that. Looking at what we have to invest in power to meet up wi what SA and india are generating, we don't have that...it's safe I give up. Nigeria sef... |

Mynd44: Please it important to put this into context.
This is not a fight against Islam but following the principles of the Legal profession.
I don't like the uniforms lawyers wear cos it is just ridiculous and the wigs are funny but, it is a uniform that stay and lets not joke about it.
This lady knew she wont be called to bar. Female law students do not wear hijab to class, they wear scarfs. It is principle.
If she wants to obey her religion, she is free to but there should be a separation of trying to make a name to be fighting the system when the fight is needless.
She could have conformed with the dress code while also keeping her belief (check attacked pictures) she simply wanted to make a name.
Female Muslim judges conform to this dress code. The former Chairman of he NJC is a Muslim Woman and this was not an issue.
Please why couldnt the young lady wear a wig like the ones I attached? you're being hypocritical. You should've gone on to tell us the part of constitution that says she can't dress like she did, just like the writer provided constitutional provisions that grants her that right. Is their rule on dressing superior to the constitution? |

princeade86: very true, buh muslim are taking it to wrong way. And i believe is nt all of them. Av nt see any of their top in d north,teach their daughter to wear hijab by force to everywhere. U can imagine that even at NYSC,dey want to wear it by force. If we allow dis, why nt allow other religions like OSUN, SANGO, EGUN, OBATALA AND IGUNNU worshippers to wear their costume to institutions. Or are they not religions? how do you guys reason? Because some few rich kids don't wear in the north, it's illegal, right? Who says it's until they wear that other can wear? |
