The hijab madness must stop

it's actually the hijab madness that birthed the lawyer showing up in his religious attire since everyone wants to shove their religion on everyone's face and don't want to respect each other's boundaries but want others respect theirs,then let the show begin

HilcomTech:


Stop foaming at the mouth and barking like a rabid dog.

OLODO wey you be. Did any Muslim stop you from wearing your babalawo attire?

NOBODY IS FOAMING O OGA,IT IS BECUASE YOU CRAZY AND RETARDED NORTHERNERS ARE TAKING US BACK TO THE 18TH CENTURY,SO MAKE UNA TRY GET SENSE THIS IS 21ST CENTURY AND COUNTRIES ARE RUNNING AND THINKING LIKE THE SPEED OF LIGHT NOT THIS CRAWLING PACE AT WHICH YOU GUYS WANTS US TO LEAVE.BREAK UP AND GO AND BE DRESSING LIKE HERDSMEN TO YOUR OFFICES NOBODY CARES

GloriousGbola:
this is just silliness

first off, none of those people running around in traditional attire are actually traditionalists

they have alsodeliberately misconstrued the clothing of traditionlists with the hijab

the man may as well wear bishops or reverend father robes to court

anyway, if they really want to carry out this protest to the fullest, then they have to follow in the steps of women who wear hijab, and wear these robes EVERYWHERE , not just in court.

the only place where women remove their hijab is when they are at home

so please please, if you want to make a protest, do it right -

also please ensure that you are actually a traditional worshipper, and not a poser

It is not a protest. He is simply exercising his fundamental rights and why are you people troubled? How does that affect you?

Franklyspeakin:
It won't be the court that I'll ban hijab. Don't worry soon suicide bombing will commence in earnest using hijab and the people will then fight against it

are criminals not already using hijab to perpetuate nefarious activities and hiding under the cloack of Islam?

Splitmind:
The Islamophobic lawyer would be cooling off in prison for mocking Islam if this nation was ruled by the principles of Sharia.

Very soon it will happen.

lol, it would happen as usman dan nunu fodio,

As much as there's freedom of association, I can decide to be a traditionalist on monday dressed up as one, and a buddhist on tuesday dressed as one.

If you choose to be a muslim all your life, it is your choice. There's no place in my religion that compels me to dress one attire all-day.

compton11:
especially the one on Mary

there are many PAGAN worship Muhammad Incorporated in Islam, example of one is doing tarwaf between marwa and safa. you need evidence ?

long before Islam, the PAGAN use hijab.

Mary did not put on hijab

kafeii123:


Abi u don reconsider....it will soon reach the army and police....


I feel we should really just separate religion from our institutions thou... Wear whatever you want in your house....but in public or professional spaces... put in only the professional regalia for that office... while we're still trying to come to terms with office clothing.....some folks may just enter the soace now... claiming they're nudists and must be allowed to enter offices and perform their duties fully naked...what do we do then...

Our constitution recognises no specific religion as such ..we claim to be a secular state..we must stop deceiving ourselves in this regard

Lolx! @the bolded, see why I say the maddest would carry the day? No be only hijab wearers they ment!

Funflipper:

I'm surprised they felt uncomfortable and threatened by his dressing that reveals his religion,when they were wearing their own hijab,they didn't know others Will feel uncomfortable about it? Since we all want to express our religious views through our dressing and put religion above common sense,let the show begin

Those guys need to be given a taste of their own madness

Funflipper:

Did I say I was troubled?

Can you read at all?

Or has the bile risen from your stomach to your eyes?

I said he should carry out his cos play to the fullest

Women wear hijab all through the day.
He shoukd wear his silly outfit through the day everywhere for the rest of his life
He should also adopt the religion he is cos playing as.

It is not to jump into traditional attire to make a protest, he should adapt what he is doing

We sha do not see woke soyinka an admitted traditionalist running around dressed in paint and rags

You want to protest as a traditionalists, do it with your full chest.

Nigeria Muslims should urgently consider whether they want to live in a secular state or opt for an Islamic state for themselves. Nigeria will fight a religious war in time to come if the religious extremism witnessed in the last seven yours continues unchecked.

Clearly, Muslims are on a mission to exert more influence in our national life than has been the case. A widening of Islamic presence is the goal, however, this is very dangerous in a highly religiously polarized society like ours.

At this rate, we are not far from another Dafur or Afghanistan.

Sound like a you are a prime candidate for gender reassignment, if you are actually reasoning like this

There is freedom of association, but then again freedom of being a dilettante is also allowed.

You can turn it into a fashion show. Wear a different trad every day

Just ensure you follow the action of the people you hate so much and wear the uniform Everywhere

The irony is completely lost on you, as most of these silly stunts betray a complete misunderstanding of Islam.

I am really not suprised at this reaction.

Back in school, Christians would casually say how upset and irritated they were at seeing women in hijab.

This was students, teachers etal.

The same people complaining about oppression were doing their best to oppress people they had power over.

seguntijan:
Lolzz, una pure hatred for hijab is second to none. Let everyone try their beliefs outfit and let's see which is sustainable over time na.

Stop being happy as a slave, your fore fathers were killed and forced to accept this religion. You now willingly accept enslavement. What benefit has Islam brought to Africa and Nigeria, except for hating other non Muslims and terrorism. Am waiting to hear the benefit, or is it the 12 virgins
Mugu.

SporaD8:

I am so loving this!!!
At best those lawyer who employ diabolical means to win cases won't need to hide it anymore!
lawyers during hearings can now speak into Buffalo horns and wear herbalist ephods in courtroom!

Lmao . When the Supreme Court can’t be specific in its judgement , they open the floor for anarchy. Soon police , soldiers and other uniformed government agencies will follow suit . It is just a matter of time . How do you stop a traditionally fortified police officer in full regalia from going to operations? It would be discriminatory

You're obviously a Muslim, therefore fail to see or refuse to understand the message contained in the man's exercise of the rights accorded him by the supreme court's hijab decision.

It is to be observed that it took an alkali CJ for this decision to be handed down in Nigeria's history. This is our Buhari inheritance. If a Muslim can wear a hijab to any occasion, so also can an Olokun, Amadioha, Christian, Sango, Ogun, etc worshipper.

These are all equal and recognized and competing religions in Nigeria.

soullove1881:


Are christians not wearing Berets again? In fact some are putting on rosary. I don't understand all these unnecessary ranting.
I went to government secondary school that belong to ADS where Muslim wear jihad and christians put on berets. But unfortunately, Baptist secondary school that belong to govt didn't allow Muslim to wear hijab.
I honestly don't understand why we christians always looks inferior to Muslims, it's mostly written over us. I've seen many Muslims married to christians without forcing religion on them, Remi Tinubu, Titi Abubakar, Florence Ajimobi etc. Joke aside, we equally have religion intolerance.
Can someone please tell me wife of any public christians figure as a Muslim.

We need to start teaching our children religion tolerance, this is how northerners got it wrong and we southerners have started exhibiting this trait.
May God help us

This is one thing with you folks, always using your busted taqiya system just to mislead those who don't understand the topic.

Must you claim to be a Christian when you are not one?
Be proud of your religion na...

BTW, those men found those women worthy to marry and they married them.
So you expect a Christian man to marry a Muslim woman just because he wants to prove a point to you, who be this one sef?
Check your street, you will see a Christian man married to a Muslim woman. I think the son of a SW governor married the daughter of an emir from the north sometimes ago, there are others like that.

Moreover, the reason why it's not common to see a Christian man and Muslim woman marriage is because you people frown against it seriously and also there are numerous of Christian ladies to marry from, so no need searching further.

oloyedewaris:





You people need to understand that hijab isn't an attire, it's just a piece of cloth to complement your dressing, just like cap

You can wear a a suit, shirt, tip or any dressing and complement it with hijab


Stop making it seems like Muslims are violating any rule



All these tradition attire and robe are complete dressing and shouldn't be allowed

Thanks for your apt narrative. However you failed to admit that the argument for hijab wearing in court was on religious basis and not for fashion purpose as you have stated.

Nigeria’s constitution doesn’t recognize a specific religions and thus the freedom of association meaning “what is good for the goose is good for the gander”.

If Muslims can wear hijab freely, the traditionalists too can wear whatsoever as long as it doesn’t portray nudity.

The amebo amiscus curia, what stops him from addressing the court when there is a supreme court decision on the same matter.

Stopping him from addressing the court becomes a strain to his fundamental rights.

As long as that judgment exists, he is properly dressed to address the court.

Ajeeb:



As is stands
All the modes of dressing in Nigeria institutions are Christian oriented, as introduced by the British


.
Muslims have not really demanded for the real rights

It's untill when they call for all Muslims to dress according to their belief in every office of this nation.


.
Let Christian also dress according to their belief......

That will surely be the endgame - nomore uniforms!
While at it, Muslims should also suspend the country's Constitution and practice full Sharia and finally the country would be divided into Muslim North and Christian South!
That is the end of Solomon gruandy!

Dreal1247:

Nope. They claim it’s their dress code.
Other religion have dress code. Everyone should flaunt theirs.

That’s the definition of let all of us be mad together.

You are obviously a christian and you lack the ability to follow through.

Please follow in the steps of the muslim women you are imitating and fully advocate of the rights of traditional worshippers by

1) dresssing your women, not your men in whatever traditionalists allegedly wear. My only knowledge or so called traditionalist wear is from Nigerian movies and it only features for some strange reason, men.

2)doing this 24/7. As Muslim women do.

Hypocrites of the highest order. You spent decades wiping out and demonising traditional worship, now you are falling over yourselves to cos play as 'devil worshippers' agents of Satan, etc to make a point

Please ensure you carry some human parts to complete the ensemble. No need to wear the clothes of the white man

That is how to shove your religion in others faces

Maybe you can dress in rags like the alleged child witches of akwa ibom.

Who cares to understand islam?

If islam charges death penalty for not wearing hijab, well sorry for you guys because mine does not. I can wear it anytime anywhere.

Hey, there's an update that some terrorists just murdered a few farmers in sokoto, maybe it's blasphemous for being a farmer or maybe farming without hijab

It's your father that's foaming and barking like a rabid dog because I didn't mention your moniker when I made my point. If you have contrary opinion then be civil about it and not acting up like an indelicate kid. Steer clear of my mention if you don't want to be unfortunate. Omo Ale.

Small Hijab a small accessory that makes on looks more decent is somehow a problem to u people. Simply because it is associated with Islam. Now let me ask u does that man's dressing makes sense is it not tarnishing the image of the judiciary.... May be da should talk about wrist watch also and so on.... hypocrites major of Nigerians.

Hijab on its own is Ok. I don't see any problem with it in court room as far as there is proper security check to prevent catastrophe.

The major problem is that one that covers the face. It think it called Nigab or something, that should not be allowed in court environment (for security reasons). Because it hide the identity of the individual. So criminals can take advantage of it to unleash havoc.

Thinktwicemybro:

Now you actually sound daft.

People will dress in garb that gives them a heart attack? For what silly reasons? Do you even understand that wearing a hijab takes mental discipline?

Many people walking round with hijab are not Muslims. The incoherent arguments of the intolerant Nigerian Christian.

Nudism is also OK, because as a nudist I can burst into the courtroom and partake in court sessions moreover I am naked, I have nothing to hide

All I read here is rant, rant, and rant!!!
Just tell me public figure you know.

Know this and know peace!
You're either a Muslim or christian because of your parents religion.
You're either a Yoruba or Igbo or Hausa because of your parents Tribe, and same goes to Geopolitical zone.

Only those who willingly converted to Christianity or Islam are the one with experience.
