Seun: As reported on Nairaland in 2017, the Federal University Of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB) banned the niqab, which is an Islamic dress that covers the entire body of a woman except her eyes. The reason for this was obviously to ensure that people on campus could be identified. They didn't ban the hijab, which covers a woman's face and neck, or the chador, which covers a woman's entire body except her face.
Recently, a former student of FUNAAB came to the university dressed in a the niqab. The security men insisted that she must remove her face-covering veil before she could enter university. Subsequently, the university confirmed that the niqab is banned at FUNAAB.
Now the Muslim Rights Concern, a very important muslim rights organization headed by Professor Ishaq Akintola, is challenging the niqab ban at FUNAAB. According to him, the niqab ban violates the freedom of religion guaranteed by the constitution, which says "Every person shall be entitled to freedom of ... religion ... to manifest and propagate his religion or belief", so it's illegal.
He said, "No institution of learning, from primary to tertiary, whether federal, state, or even private, has the right to prohibit the use of hijab or niqab. It is a contravention of the provisions of Section 38(i) & (ii) of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as amended. To that extent, therefore, all anti-niqab pronouncements, memos, circulars, posters, etc issued by FUNAAB are null, void and of no legal effect whatsoever. Same goes for all such declarations and actions in other academic institutions throughout Yorubaland."
He provided a possible compromise to address the security concerns: "if the authorities are not just keen on profiling Muslims, all they need to do is to ensure that Muslim women wearing niqab or hijab are checked by female security personnel. Their identities can also be verified by female officials who will take them to one side and take a look at their faces and cross-check on their identity cards."
He called for muslim students to take action against the niqab ban, saying, "FUNAAB has crossed the red line. This oppression must stop and Muslim students have to take their destiny in their hands or the humiliation will continue ad infinitum. From now on, any institution in the South West that messes up with Allah-given fundamental human rights of Muslim students will face the wrath of the students." (peacefully)
If hijab and the other one no do them, make them stay for house. Which nonsense piety is that? Something a terrorist can wear to carry out terror attacks on campus.
TMKsouth: What we don't like is u exxagerating your role in SA as if South Africans themselves didn't fight for their freedom.
Look at Ramaphosa's response blasting Western nations which has been viewed over 300,000 times in just 13 hours on a UK website. Are u telling me SA is not playing its role?
The problem with Nigerians is u lack humility - that's what turns South Africans off about u guys.
Why didnt you remember we lacked humility when Nigeria boycotted a $1billion oil deal in the 70s because of apartheid that didn't concern us? Or when Nigerians were taxed to raise funds to help South African "brothers and sisters" in the fight? Google all these. Its right there. Why didnt you guys reject all the help you got from proud Nigerians?
Following Dr. Ayoade Olatunbosun-Alakija's appearance on the BBC, she also appeared on South Africa's public broadcaster - the SABC on Sunday evening Live from Abuja. The video has garnered over 11,000 views in just 5 hours.
Her BBC Interview had already gone viral throughout the day in South Africa with one of the local social media accounts by Clayson Monyela recording over 80,000 views in less than 24 hours.
I wish she didn't speak on behalf of xenophobic South Africa. Once again, Nigeria to the rescue. You hate us for the sins of some. Yet, we still find a way to show solidarity when the occasion arises.
Ninety6: Happened to me 6 yrs back and this chubby, bossy and arrogant lady meekly passed out after just 3 mere punches to her chest! Imagine? thought she was a worthy opponent, i just weak and thanked God that she was revived and taken to hospital by samaritans nearby.
How can you hit someone's boobs repeatedly and expect she won't go down? Why her boobs? That thing is very painful.
ollybasa: if you go marry all these yanshy girls, l sorry for you o. Your problem will be plus all her problems, they are not productive, all they offer is to show you big yarshy. Ur estate first. When l was building my estate my girl left because l didn't buy her a car, l would have bought her a car of 600k then, but suppose she waited l would have bought her car of 4m or more because my annually rent income is 15m now, l swear, am 40yrs now looking for a decent girl to marry. It took me 4yrs to complete the house.
You're a 40 year old baby boi looking for more pussies to destroy. Talk true. No body will beat you here.
JerryBizz: [s]Hahah! This lady is tired of spinster-hood. Is this how they find husband? You don't care for what that commenter said? As good as it w?? You just want the husband anyway, anyhow .
Unrelated to you- I'm making a general statement now. Chai...no wonder men use women anyhow and f*ck their bodies without respect, because they know that nowadays ladies don't care for the preconditions. They just want to get married.
'Just have money and come and marry us ' that's the mindset '
In the end, he teaches you sex, makes you a sex machine and breaks up with you for a petty reason, just so he could go marry the lady who's sex life he has no idea about. You now disgust him. He has practice every sex style he wanted to on you. He has fvcked your mouth over and over. Sprayed his cum on your face and it even dripped down into your eyes, making him laugh at you instead of rushing to help you get a napkin to wipe it off. It stung your eyes. It hurt. He has anal- bleeped the lady. He now sees her as sh*t ! He doesn't consider her as a potential wife even in another life.
The above is what a lot of ladies and girls are passing through today and yet, they still don't want to up the standards. Deny him of sex and watch him take you seriously. But that's if the lady isn't desperate and broke, to be able to not look back on her stance. Men, pls fvck your girlfriends with respect and human dignity o. Women, stop being foolish. Don't try to show him how ' woke ' you are sexually. Don't go overboard to do nasty , sexual acts with him just in hopes of him keeping you. After sex, his brain will reset! He is back to managing you and seeing you as a whvre who is at his beck and call. He wouldn't want his sister's to be in your shoes. Likewise, you wouldn't want your brothers dating that kind of girl. So, what am I saying?? Use your brain well. Men will never finish same goes for ladies. They'll still be around even if you clock 40 years of age. even the ones who will meet your taste. Why be desperate? Oh, because you bow to societal pressures abi? You are doing yourself in the end. If you can't do without sex, then sorry for you. I'm staying unmarried till it affects me medically. That's how long I can wait till I find a compatible person. I don't even like the way our girls are banging guys up and down. Just see porn videos online! You'll know those ones are just boyfriend and girlfriend. And your faces are showing!? After who will we blame for not having the ' man of our dreams' or ' woman of our dreams' When sexual gratification is all that we were preoccupied with before feeling it's time to settle down with a life partner. May sense and wisdom help us all. Thenay God come in to help us after. He won't interrupt your sexual life, oh. You're OYO . But when you catch that life-threatening STD , he will still be quiet Until you call on him and finally humble yourselves. But you may or may not still get cured.
Faith no be beans oh. So why risk it? So, dude , zip up! Girl, pull that panty back on! Marriage is not a do-or-die affair. Well, not anymore. We know better now.[/s]
Interesting15: This is a generation where God is raising women (especially young women) that He will grant great authority and power to enact great influence in various spheres and sectors, with the aim of bringing Glory to His Name and establishing the Kingdom of God on earth. Don't allow any randy guy hinder you from becoming the Queen you are destined to be. Worship God in spirit and in truth through Jesus Christ our Lord.
ImaIma1: It brings lots of gifts, attention, help and many more. Mine brought me lots of male friends (I hated my gender drama) plus I was into sports.
I was almost married off by my volleyball coach during NYSC . And it also brought a lot of older suitors.
Candidlady: cant use candle for a reason icant explain!
my crazy friend had one nokia torchlyt then we'd place it on vib, insert it into the "cd player" then ring the number in the phone! Sweet tripz and vibez!
cliqtips: I believe most people that like your write up are Female and that's fine but maybe you guys should go beyond the physical look and focus on the intellectual traits.
Or how do we explain a situation where a beautiful that can't hold an intellectual convo ?
This should be your focus .... woman being smart, resourceful, homely and humane. That's what's more important. If you have physical beauty as a woman, it would be an added advantage.
You just proved my first paragraph right. Although not indicated, most people expect beautiful women to be dull AND bad mannered.
