The point is these moslems who are just protesting now knew what the uniform for the school was before they enrolled their children in the school. This is what I always find baffling in these religious conflicts. As a parent, before I enrol my child in a school, I want to find out what is allowed and what is not allowed in such schools. And I know some moslem parents do this ditto for some Christiano parents. It is only lazy, mischievous and troublesome parents who do not. Such are usually the first to ask to be allowed to do some things that are not in the initial agreement.
As for those who said students in the UK are allowed to wear anything, it did not come by violence. There were court cases and not all requests were granted. Some were allowed while some were denied.
Finally, it is because moslems are prone to violence that they always make issues out of anything. Were they to be a Christians, I bet they will simply move their children to other schools. It is simply because the Bible and our pastors teach us not to be violent.  The Christian will rather suffer a denial of his right than take up arms or employ violence to solve it.
Finally, issues like this point to why moslems should be more interested in establishing schools of their own. Someone said teh school in question is a public school. Yes I agree but originally it was a Christian school forcefully taken over by the government without any compensation to the original owners - the Methodist Church. If anyone should be fighting today, it is the Christians whose school was taken over so that moslems who did not establish any school of their own can have a place to send their children. But Christians will never fight because a Christian who employs violence to gain what he believes is his right has forfeited the right to heaven - That is the Bible not my opinion!

PS: The Principal of the school called in the Police when the students turned up in hijab. She did the right thing. She invited law enforcement officers!. Now the Principal acted in official capacity. What the Moslem Community in Iwo ought to do is take up the issue with the Government of the State or seek Judicial intervention. If the state government directs the Principal and other principals to allow students with hijab into the school, they will be allowed in. But if not, the principal who allows them into the school without government approval will be sanctioned.

I sincerely hate arguing over religion but sometimes i am forced to speak when myopic bigots like you continue to spew trash on social media like this.
So, in ur own church mind it is alright for police to arrest a minor over an ordinary head gear? Talk about the peacefulness of xtianity.

You accuse muslims of hate when ur bible is full of hateful and vengeful words for all non-israelites, you jump at every opportunity to harass muslims and claim to be the victims, smh for u and ur cohorts.

Islam teaches us to be patient, peaceful and just but not to be fools; I dont know where in ur bible it says u shouldn't fight for ur rights but ours teaches us to always stand for whats right, not oppress the weak and down trodden and always forbid the wrongdoings in our society even if it is committed by muslims.

NB: No law in Nigeria forbids the use of the hijab in schools much less a goverment school.

These people sef. No matter how i try to see them in positive light,it just aint working. Dont know why they are always this troublesome. Religious tolerance? They dont even know what it is! We are talking about a handful of muslim students in a mostly christian state and they want to impose their crap on everyone. Jeez. These guys would never accept any thing christian in their muslim schools yet when they are allowed by christians to study with them,they keep bringing up one trouble or the other. Damn. Someone is talking of morals. I dont want to tell you what those girls do in the closet! Well,if the government decides that they should be allowed then fine. But must they be this rebellious?

Who says Osun state is a mostly xtian state (I laff in hebrew); Osun state is predominantly muslim (I am a native of Osun so i very much know what i'm talking abt) and Iwo town in particular has d highest ratio of Muslim/xtian population in d whole of d south (excluding Ilorin).

Nobody is imposing anything on u dude, its okay for ur preachers to disturb my door to distribute bibles and preach d word of ur god early momo but not okay for our own kids to cover their hair to school?

hell, if an Ifa worshiper wants to wear an ileke around his neck to school nobody has d right to stop him. Last time I checked the colonial era when you force people to abandon their religion for education is over! Wake up u smelly, no good bigots, mschwwwwwww

y do u pple jst turn on ur bigotry whenever u hear d word islam or muslims?

1. There was no reported case of violence; it was a peaceful protest!

2. The schools in question are public schools (even if they have missionary names)

3. Why should a school have a minor arrested for dressing like a muslim? nobody is questioning such extreme bigotry which leads to disillusionment and eventually breakdown in law and order.

4. There is no law in Nigeria that says a student cannot use hijab to school (prove me wrong).


The principal that got the student arrested should be sued to serve as a deterrence to extremist xtians who incites unnecessary confusion and mayhem with their myopic bigotry.

Loving ds unfolding drama, hp to learn a lesson or two from ds

Ow much for each? Make we transact

Thanks for d responses guyz

I'll really appreciate ur responses

Igbotic accent nd a bad sense of humour, poor command of english grammar is a nail in d as.s

Reading thru ds I can't help but laff at how ignoramus nd islamophobic nigerian xtians r, ow on earth can a sane human being quote a verse out of a chapter of over 100 verses nd then draws conclusions from it *smh*, if u r so obsessed wiv Islam, get a copy of d Qur'an (or if ur brain no fit undastand am, go buy an islamic book written by muslims nd compare d facts to d trash u've been reading).

I believe it was in ur bible dat ur 'god' ordered a certain king to kill an entire tribe including their goats nd sheeps! (Don't tell me its d old testament cos bible na bible)

Also in d same book Jesus cursed a tree for not producing fruit! Ur own Jesus (not mine) also asked for swords from his disciples when he was abt to b crucified!

U say Islam is violent but can any 'kiriyo' here tell me ow their religion was spread in europe or who d who d knights of d templars were (my fathers bodyguards abi?) #mschwww

Historicaly Islam is d father of modern science (research nd don't argue blindly) while d church was known to practice obscurantism.

And yes we will continue to fight d infidels who wage war on islam, not with swords but our mighty pen (nd keyboards).

Eid-el-adha mubarak to my muslim brovas nd sisters, may almighty Allah continue to guide and protect us from the enmity and hypocrisy we face from the kafirs nd fake muslims and may He guide us to d right path not to d path of those whom r astray, ameen

Ow much is ur torch(black) nd do u hv torch2?

This wkend is just f***cked up for me; falcons, barca, man u nd now bayern☹

I'd say N1m and above in surulere for a standard
supermarket with rent, freezer, decor, inventory,
etc.
For a medium mart, N500k, though i saw a thread
with N400k, not this:
www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-773292.0.html
For a neighbourhood minimart, N200k should be
ok.
I'm sure you'll have a better idea once you list the
essentials like:
1. Rent: 60k, 150k, 300k
2. Freezer: 50k
3. Furniture/decor: 50k
4. Goods : 200k
5. Gen: 10k, 30k
6. Misc: 100k

Do u live in lagos?

Dat 1m is hardly enuff to get a standard shop in ikorodu let alone Surulere.

All ur oda expenditures r grossly underpriced, it would hv bn okay if this was 2000 nt 2011.

U'll need abt 2m for a neighbourhood mart nd abt 3.5 - 4m for a mini mart in an area like 'lere or ikeja, for lagos island dnt just talk abt it if u don't have at least 7-10m for starters.

Holger u fall ma hand ooon wc kain yeye own goal b dat na, anyways 1-1 sef no bad

Trust naija xtians, never tired of bashing ISLAM when their pastors r busy robbing them dry. Its true we have a massive problem with violence in Islam but so does xtianity (the Norway bomber is a self acclaimed xtian terrorist with a cell in scandinavia), albeit not as much.

Both religions were spread by violence xcept we choose to be naive (the romans did nt preach xtianity in Britain, germania nd oda parts of europe, they forced it on d people; worship christ or be hanged) plus d gun wars in Africa

ISLAM IS A RELIGION OF PEACE, those who choose to do otherwise in d name of d religion are misguided lots, stop bashing muslims who come out nd criticize these zealots.

N.B: terrorism started when d xtians decided to compensate for their atrocities against d jews by planting a jewish state in d heart of Arabia nd d very first suicide bomber was NOT a muslim.

u xtians are here condemning a whole religion because of the unguided act of a few people, have u forgotten so quickly the 5 crusades(where more than one million muslims were killed in the name of God and his son) by the church in the middle ages or the fact that people were burnt for having measles(possesed by demons) or being too beautiful(witchcraft) in a period when d muslim world was flourishing with hospitals and libraries. For the xtian hipocrites who r so quick to condemn my religion (yes! I'm muslim and proud), go and read abt the killings of muslim moors in andalucia (16-17 centuries), or more recently killing of palestinian refugees in d bakaa valley by lebanese xtians(80's) and killing of jews in Russia and Argentina (yes! by xtians).

B4 u go ahead and bash me before this facts sink into ur head like a typical nigerian is wont to do; I want to state dat I condemn mindless killing by any religious zealot (muslim,xtian,jew,buddhist et al) and FYI;
1. sharia doesnt say u should stone a person for indecency,
2. It is a sin to pass judgement unto others without proper authority,
3. How r we sure d boys didn't kill her for sumtin else? #justsaying.

If u truly want to know more abt d prophet I suggest you read his compiled biography 'WHEN THE MOON SPLITS' and see how people like bin laden and his cronies are nothing like him.

Learn before you talk.

Christians don't seem to remember the killings of Muslims and Jews during the crusade years, what's happening now is nothing compared to what the Catholic Christians did to the Jews in Spain, Portugal, Argentina, Russia and Germany to mention but a few, and of course the dark ages in Europe. Or why do you think the Protestants moved to the New World? To escape extremist prosecutions!

This does not justify the recent killings but it goes to show that every religion has extremist tendencies and its up to the members of that religion to curb this hydra headed monster in their midst.
