Ministry should have attended to them...because they were wrong not to have attended to them

After all, in other establishments, people are attended to irrespective of dress.

But having said that, the problem with labelling situations like this 'Sharia law' is basically overexaggeration. It also gives the idea that only those of the Muslim faith support modest dressing, and also gives the idea that dressing properly...ie wearing corporate or a proper skirt and blouse means you are observing Sharia law...or something.

The truth is, we Nigerians ought sometimes to dress modestly. Saying that does not mean I want you to bow to your new Saudi overlords or something.

Will u dress for a job interview with tshirt and shorts Will the sister go for visa interview with spaghetti top and jeans Pls not everything is political, dress how u want to be addressed. Wearing shorts and t-shirt is for leisure or when going for recreation, not when u are going to an official function or govt establishment. They obviously can't take u serious. Has nothing to do with religion!

Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, cloth yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. - Colossians CH 3 V 12


If they really practice what their Bible preaches, they would know that the Bible is even stricter than Sharia.

Wayward people always trying to justify their waywardness by attacking Shari'a.

If you want to argue, the Mallam will bring out a Bible and ask you to show him where it is written that you should dress like this.
That said, people should stop ascribing exposure of the body to Christianity and covering of the body to Islam or Sharia.
Furthermore, Nigeria is not run with a religious constitution. People should be allowed to dress as they like so long as it isn't offensive or nude.
The same oga in the office who is married will still collect the girl's number to toast her

Stop this slavery talk pls!
The only reason they were turned back is because they are not related to the elites or whites,

And the very sad thing is that you clowns all know it, but you are accomplices in your own enslavement

To have been denied entry is even mildly. Come and and see how a girl was flogged for passing through a central mosque years back because she was on scarf with Bible and not hijjab.

The problem with Nigeria is the Religion Joker Card!

So because Nigeria is not a shariah country, you can dress naked or irresponsibly? Even your pastor will turn you and your sister back if she wears revealing clothes to church. Will you then accuse the church of practicing sharia?

Dressing corporately while going for a job interview is to impress the interviewers, while a govt establishment is supposed to be open for any freaking member of that govt. It is exactly like asking a customer to dress in a particular manner before walking into a mall. The govt officials are the workers and you are the customer, it is their job to serve you regardless of the cloth you wear. Let's call a spade a spade, what they did was bad.

Don't they think ? undecided what they wore was inappropriate, you don't dress casually going for an appointment.
Would he or his sister dress like that to church?
There's nothing wrong if they were sent back.

In so much that decent dressing is good but it left to the discretion of the person and the occasion.Many of the people dressing in casual outfits especially ladies @ the airports know they cant dress like that to an official interview or religious program.

It's ridiculous that they didn't attend to them. Since when are T-shirt and shorts, tank tops and trousers, inappropriate dressing?

Nigeria in 2021. Pathetic.
