Ok.

Let us agree that female students (who desire to wear the hijab) should be allowed to wear the hijab in mission schools. The constitution allows it, non?

We then also need to agree that female students (who do not desire to wear the hijab) should also be allowed to do as they wish in Islamic schools or wherever they choose to go.

Its only fair...
Wetin you dey talk sef?
Have you ever seen a Muslim forcing anyone to put on the hijab in Nigeria?

In Abuja here alone over five islamic university.
In Kwara state my state over 2 available and they don't threaten any student from Christian background.
If you don't know ask I will help you
Re: Bishop Oyedepo Rejects Hijab Use In Mission Schools, Warns Against Harassment by CrownedPhoenix:
Logically, is there any muslim school that would allow female students without hijab? NO.
They must wear it or don't attend a muslim school.

So why go to a school that doesn't want it and then attempt to force them to want it?

I'm curious though, do muslims build schools that are not arabic? Not sure I have seen.

I recall a private school my son used to attend in Jos about 6 years ago. During one of the PTA meetings, we were about to close the meeting when a Muslim parent asked why we do Christian prayers to open and Christian prayers to close the meetings always. The School Administrator said that's what they want and the Muslim parent can pray his own prayer in his mind.😁
The Muslim parents were less than 3 in the entire school of more than 300 or more parents.

Crescent University insist on Muslim dressing and many more of such universities.

I see no reason why a Muslim would send their wards to a Christian school to start with. However, if such school is fully funded by the government, then there is no single reason why anyone should be prevented from attending the school and espousing their beliefs.
Besides, how does "a piece of clothing" affects you so much?
Hijab is an Islamic symbol not just a piece of clothing and as such, its use should be limited to Islamic environments.
That said, don't pretend as if you didn't know Covenant University is a private Christian university.

Whatever happened to love your neighbour as yourself?
You guys should have your own muslim schools. From history, once you are given a mile, you lots always go extra miles.

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.
Any Christian child in a Muslim school should abide by all their Islamic rules and exit if they can't. Same applicable to Muslims in a Christian schools. Leave if tou can't do without hijab.

I don't know why this religion always looking to extend their trouble to others. U have Muslim universities go there and dress as you like. Screen them from the registration.

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
You don't even know the difference between culture and religion

Have u heard of all the revelation about the religion of peace. Check your Tiktok u will be marvel. Even the so called Alfa cannot defend the religion they claim to practice. It is so filled with lots of revelation not suitable for a sane being.

Give me their names and tell what made them "Islamic". Were they established by a mosque or any Islamic institution,or they're owned by Muslims? Those are two different things. One is religion, the other is business.
I need names please

You and your landlord should sort yourself out. For emphasis sake, Bishop doesn't want anything Islamic in his private schools. Take your child and their school fees elsewhere.

They know what they are doing. Their modus operandi is to disrupt the peace of an established system and thereby take over.

What if practicing catholic students wish to wear their hijab, as a denomination of Christianity, will this guy man reject also?

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...!
Thank you for your respond. The Muslim school that allow christian students with their doctrines to pass through their school without any noise, that's their (the school)choice and it's within their right to do so and if they didn't permit or admit the christian students with their doctrines,it is still within their right nobody forced to accept them.

The christian missionary school never asked the Muslims not to come to their school but to abide with their rules and regulations, this is not too much for asking and not hatred.
Thank you

Fulani terrorists are taking over others land while they are angling for other people's schools. As thieving as Hamas. They just can't live without wanting what others have.

Well I will not blame the drunken pastor.
My blame goes to to the weak Muslims thinking Christian schools would provide better education for their kids at the expense of their faith.
When Alkalam University and others well equipped institution are available.
When your faith is not strong with your Religion, nonsense would be offered to you especially those from the South West!

Go and create your own mission schools and make it free.

Hmm In my country, we all love Jesus, we all love Mohammed, we are so religious, we pray on Sundays and Fridays , speak in tongues and shout Allahu-Akbar but we hate each other. We are a conglomeration of hypocrites.

No Ones Compeled To Pateonise A School Different From Ones Faith.
You are neither for or against....
You have to stick to the main discuss and say your point. Let the hypocrisy remain on the side you choose to support . Thanks.

Did he say any day that his university is of the mission type?

Do you know what is a mission school, how it's being funded, and it's intended purpose and what is their main objective?

Please mention the name of that Muslim university and the names of the christian students who had attended and graduated?

Also what is the foundation principles of that Muslim university and for what intended purposes?


It's just like the circular banking system and the Islamic banking system.
Many think the circular banking system is a Christian bank, but that is not true. There's nothing in such banks that's a proof that it's a Christian bank because it's not run on christian ideologies or the Holy Bible laws.


One of the main principles of the Islamic banking system is that they operate on zero interest loans or should I say that's what we hear for those of us who ate outside.

While I agree completely with the bishop on this point, he is not your father. That honor belongs to the man who sired you, or to the man who raised you.
We have biological father's and spiritual father's as well. Some even have father's who are figure heads and are very impactful in their lives. Sometimes much than our biological father's. Hope you understand.
