Rubbish talk!
So ,when you come to Christian Schools, ARE YOU NOT To Abide by the Rules and Regulations Of That Institution?
So,what is the Fuss about?
Must you bring the Hijab issue to the School or what are they even dragging about?
•Thank You Sir - Bishop and more Anointing for the Ministry Works .

In as much as I support his stance of refusing to accept whatever these islamic extremists tried to push down his throat, which one is it with threatening them with "God is a consuming fire".
Oga oyedepo, abegi, there's no God anywhere... And ye Islamic extremists too abegi carry your advocacy for wearing hijab elsewhere, in fact go build your institutions and force your beliefs and ideas on your students....

Nonsense
That God you claim doesn't exist anywhere will visit you within 7 days.
Only be humble enough to come here to let us know how far.
But all I know is, you can't escape his visitation.
Never.

His 100% right, go and build your own school, dress as you wish and introduce doctrine that suits you. You can't take your religion to a school build with Christians money, where the school doctrine based on Christianity way. The problem start from the registration, if registration office accepts students base on their religions faith, the school wouldn't have encountered the problem.
School built by Christian or congregation 🤑 that most Christians can't afford 😊 due to high cost of school fees 😂

Make all of us dey play 😂

Are you a Christian?
Is that what you are thought in school of Bibles you attended.
And what give you assurance no Christian children attending Muslim university.
By the grace of God I'm a Christian. Bible thought us to love everyone irrespective of religion but not to bow or copy the doctrine and identity of unbelievers or non christian. Hyjab is a doctrine and identity of Islam and a Muslim woman.

If I as a Christian didn't copy the dressing of an unbeliever or non- christian but I collect money from unbelievers and allow such to be worn freely in a school God give me money to build,am I not indirectly supporting what God abhor and what about even the safety of others,we have heard of many terror acts being carried out by women in hyjab.

Moreover as a landlord I have the right to tell you what I want and what I don't want and decide the kind of people i want in my house and if you know you can't comply you're not under any compulsion to take the house.

God bless you, Sir! If your children must wear the hijab, then take them to a school that promotes such practices. As a Muslim, you cannot bring your child to a Christian missionary school and then try to dictate how you want your child to dress. If the hijab is that important to you, consider taking your child to Afghanistan or Iran!
Afghanistan has banned girls from going to school or working. They claim is un-Islamic and against sharia law

Re: Bishop Oyedepo Rejects Hijab Use In Mission Schools, Warns Against Harassment by ShyHussaini: 3:37pm On Aug 14, 2025
Why intruding into where the laws and regulations does not align with your beliefs? If any muslim want to attend a mission or church school, the person should also be ready to adhere to the laid down regulations of the institution.
The Bishop is 100% right. Must of the troubles in the North today are caused by these careless attention given to encroachers in the name of we come in PEACE. But give them time, they will begin to move for more freedom especially of worship, using God as weapon to achieve their agendas. It's high time these people gets it match to match.

Hypocrisy is when you show us pictures of the mother of Jesus wearing hijab as a mother figure for decency and chastity but you vehemently prevent same practice for your female students some of whom may be from muslim homes and are fundamentally protected by the constitution of the country to practice their religion anywhere in the country.

I don't know when a landlord now has a say in what I practice for my religion?

huh
If I may ask you the mother of Jesus you mentioned,do you believe in her existence?,I hate one things about you Muslim is when you people want to defend the indefensible,you quote or site from Bible you people dnt believe in, sometimes you will see a so called Iman or Muslim cleric quoting and learning Bible so hard just to used it to defend the indefensible... anything you dnt believe in it then you people should stopped quoting from it...
The truth 99.9% of this so called cleric only read to memorize the Bible they dnt understand words in the Bible, reason why they end up turning the bibles verse upside down just to suit there arguments.

The mother of Jesus you mentioned, if she were to come into existence in the present day she might not put on that veil she wore.,maybe you will also ask men to put on skirt as they always wear centuries ago... Putting of Hijabs is not originated in Islam world alone,is a sign of subdued, when you covered your head or face you are either a slave or subject that is being subdued.if it was right in centuries ago,that doesn't make it right or compelling dressing pattern in the present century.Any religion that due practice it in centuries ago aborished most of this culture of seeing women as inferior being or slave or subject to be subdue..Islam still sees women as inferior or slave to men, or subdued being that is why they still practice that old culture of compelling their female to wear the hijab,so is noting about modesty...they believe women has no right or place in existence except to give birth or satisfy their sexual urge...

The issue of hijab in school in Nigeria is a misplaced priorities. I keep asking myself always why then is the school having a school uniform if some set of student will come up with issue of hijab..you take your child to a school where is stated in the school regulations that uniform should be worn, you agreed just because you want your child be registered after they registered your child ,you send your child to school with hijab on her head then you start protesting online,on street that your child is been ask to go home or your child is been harassed just because they ask him/her to remove the hijab is that not madness.
If you believe in the culture that your female child have no right in the society,that does not make another man to follow your believe too that his female child must end up the way you want your female child to end up..so you keep you female child with her hijab around you or environment where she wouldn't be odd..

No one prevented wearing of hijabs in places that it's needed. Hijab isn't a sign of chastity but a middleeast dress code. You see to whom brain is given, wisdom is required. The world has passed era of being brainwashed. So change ya orientation and reason truthfully and logically. When Miriam, Mary or Mariam used hijab. It was part of her cultural dress. In Nigeria, indigenous tribes have dresses that shun against nudity. Now think of this. How do you claim chastity when you have hijab on ya head but the clothes is tight to the body thereby revealing curves. Or someone hiding dangerous objects inside hijabi habayas as samples of those caught by FG that's aiding terrorism? Reason deep. Hijab is meant for those who want it and in areas it's needed. It cannot be enforced on anybody.

What do you mean by landlord now having a say in how you practice ya religion?
Has anyone infringed ya right? If so explain plainly and let the world examine if yourself hasn't infringed rights of other. All those things Una dey do for ya region for traditionalist are counter productive. All religions have practices of traditional worship so no dey package ya own.
Oya waka pass!

I stand with the Body of Christ in this.

They can not detect for Mission Schools.
Those who want to wear hijab can enroll in schools that allow such dress code.

After "cornering" the public amenities and funds, they are eyeing private owned organisations. That is chaos to the society.

They like to enjoy what they are not part on their own terms. Thats satanic.

Am a practicing Muslim too by the grace of God.
Islam thought me love and kind to others not hate..
Many Christians ladies in Muslims university and graduated without anyone telling them to go and they all finished their education carrier without threatening.

See I want to let you know that pastor Oyedepo of that caliber of life he's not supposed to get involved in such act from my view of religious leader like him.

Mind you Muslims are not terrorist and Islam is not teaching terror it's just what they made you all to believe that's why.
Appreciate your understanding sir.
By for now...!
