The question of whether it’s biblical for men not to wear a cap (or head covering) in church likely stems from 1 Corinthians 11:4-7 in the New Testament, where Paul writes:"Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head.


But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head—it is the same as having her head shaved. For if a woman does not cover her head, she might as well have her hair cut off; but if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, then she should cover her head.

A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man." (NIV)In this passage, Paul instructs that men should not cover their heads during worship (praying or prophesying), as it dishonors their "head," which some interpret as Christ or their spiritual authority. This contrasts with women, whom he instructs to cover their heads. The reasoning ties into cultural and theological ideas of the time—men reflecting God’s glory directly, while women reflect man’s glory.

However, context matters. In 1st-century Corinth, head coverings carried cultural significance. For men, uncovering the head may have distinguished Christian practice from certain pagan or Jewish customs where head coverings were common. For women, covering the head was tied to modesty and social norms. Scholars debate whether Paul’s instructions were universal or specific to that culture. Elsewhere, the Bible doesn’t broadly mandate headgear rules for men in worship settings—Old Testament priests, for example, wore head coverings (Exodus 28:40-41), but that was ceremonial, not general practice.Today, many Christian denominations see this as a contextual issue, not a binding rule.

Most don’t require men to go bareheaded in church, nor do they forbid it—practicality and personal choice often prevail unless a specific tradition (like some Orthodox or Messianic Jewish groups) emphasizes otherwise.So, is it biblical? Based on 1 Corinthians 11, yes, there’s a case for men not wearing caps in church during worship.
But it’s not an absolute command across all scripture or universally enforced today—it’s more of a situational teaching than a core doctrine.

Mr. Tanko Rossi Sabo, a PDP delegate who came back with the money he got had shared it all with his community in Sanga LGA of Kaduna state.According to a former SA Media to late Governor Yakowa of Kaduna State, Reuben Buhari, Sabo spent N7 million alone on the less privileged in his community.

” He bought jerseys, paid school fees and hospital fees. He distributed the rest to other support groups,” said Buhari.Whatever is the argument on whether he was right in collecting the money or not, my consolation is that hundreds of the less privileged in his community are smiling today. For that, I say weldone Tanko,” he added.

Tanko Rossi Sabo was among the Kaduna State delegates who were at the National Convention of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) where former Vice President Atiku Abubakar emerged as the Presidentia.
