What are you saying!
Please read and get your fact right before coming out to spew balderdash and displaying your foolhardiness in public. Did Aregbesola give any executive order that Muslim female student should wear hijab to public schools? The answer is no, far from it. Aregbesola banned them from wearing it, and the Muslim body peacefully went to court to contest the executive order. Fortunately for them, the judicial verdict went in their way, the court granted their prayers which enable female Muslim students to wear their hijab to school. And that judicial verdict remains not only valid but also will serve as judicial precedence until it is overturned by a higher court in the land.

One would have thought the right and sensible thing for CAN (a body full of intellectuals and academia) to do, is to ventilate and channel their grievances to a legitimate and legal quarter. The didn't do that, they threw caution to the wind and started behaving like a conglomerate of social miscreants. Let us not allow hatred to close our eyes and brain.

And if a christian goes to a muslim school he wont be reciting the quran. They wont even accept a christian for that matter unless he/she converts to islam.

even u wud av conscience of sayn dis cos we don't force pple into our religion or convert pple by force

rajwas:
can any xtian just tell me the reason why hijab appear as a threat against you? is it a BH time bomb? xtians are ever an open enemy to Muslims since AD

Get the message straight. No one is against hijab, not even in yorubaland where your Dad could be muslim, your mum is catholic and you can decide to be on worshipping Osun. The bottomline rule in yorubaland is you must worship something. We are a multireligious ethnic group.

As strong as Islam and Xtianity are in yorubaland, b equalled informed that traditional religion and culture are also very strong.

Having established that for you, this is where the fundamental issue is: other faiths are simply saying if a particular faith can alter the uniform of a Secular Government, then others have the right to alter it too because all faiths are paying tax to govt and by extension all faiths are funding the schools.

If a Xtian child decide to wear choir robe and she claims that is what her religion stipulate, who has the right to question her? She is only exercising her right to religion as entrenched in the constitution. Likewise an Ifa worshipper or Osun worshipper tying white robe to school, the same way an muslim girl will claim the same right on her hijab.

This is not about wearing or not wearing of hijab. It is simply about if a faith can alter the school uniform of a govt all faiths are funding, then all other faiths could as well alter it in accordance to their faith.

That is fairness and justice.

The ruling of Justice falola simply says it is the fundamental right of a child to practise his or her religion at anytime, as entrenched in the constitution.

CAN is simply enforcing the right of their children to practise their religion in school too, as entrenched in the constitution. Justice Falola's ruling as given everybody the license to enforce its religious right in school.

Or does the right of some people supersedes others? What is the crime in that?

@City guy SC31 tomzman
The bottom line is those Christians supported by CAN are just being mischievous and intolerant. Of all the religions in the world, none is categorical about mode of dressing (of females) like Islam. Muslim would NEVER compromise religious duties just to belong. World over Muslim females wear their hijab wherever they go as I mentioned. Because Ogun or Lagos or whatever bans Hijab in public schools in the south doesn't make it RIGHT! What would you say if all students in Sharia states are ordered to wear ankle length Hijab in public schools.
This debate has been on going for decades, because the education system and in fact every institution of governance in this country has been designed to conform 100% with Christianity without any regard to other faith. And you turn around and call the country secular? Then a tiny issue as allowing little school girls who chose to wear just small hijab is making you and your CAN leaders foam in the mouth like your lives depend on it.
Below would tell you how the world sees Hijab, the west you love to worship in particular.

will u allow babalawo child to wear his charms to school?. Since evrybody is free to worship oor be a member of any religion.

Lets us use our Brain we are africans first of all from the creator. not muslim or christian -

all this two religions are the prodcut of slave trade and colonialism whether u like it or not

DONSMITH123:
The Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, on Wednesday, said if Muslim students continue to wear hijab to public schools in Osun state, Christian pupils will equally not stop wearing church garments and other apparels.
This declaration was made known by the Vice Chairman, VC, of CAN in the state, Pastor Moses Ogundeji.

This is coming after the state governor, Rauf Aregbesola, restated that no student is allowed to put on unauthorized uniforms to school in the state, following the instruction of CAN in the state that students should go to school in church garments.

DAILY POST gathered that some students of Baptist High School, Iwo stormed the school, wearing different church garments on Wednesday in continuation of the Tuesday drama but were prevented from going inside.

In their response to the governor, CAN is insisting that the governor should be ready to expel all students in the state, if Christians and Muslim students cannot be treated alike.

While fielding questions from journalists at the venue of the prayer meeting the association called on the hijab controversy in Osogbo on Wednesday, the VC said, “If the governor is fighting for the right of the Muslims, we will also fight for the right of the Christians.

“He should be ready to expel those wearing hijab because hijab was never part of the school uniform,” Ogundeji added.

The Secretary of CAN, Apostle Joseph Olaide, also said while addressing the gathering, that Christian students cannot be stopped from wearing church garments, adding that CAN should be notified if security men arrested any of the pupils, saying the leadership would take up the case.

Meanwhile, CAN and Muslim leaders are to meet with the Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdulrasheed Akanbi today to resolve the situation and avert any crisis that may erupt from the controversy.

Tge xtians folks wearing this robes should understand that by doing this , there are not hurting muslims or stoping muslims from " islamising " but rather they are making themselves look like foolish clowns .

Let see how long they can keep their foolishness on.

B . t . w neither a christian nor muslim

Nice one

Religions especially Islam and Christianity is widely followed in the twenty-first century by people in the Middle-east, Asia and Africa. These three places are the capitals of poverty and misery all over the world. It speaks volumes of their religious dogmatism. They live in hell while alive but hope to live in paradise after death. Bunch of deluded people.

OsusuMustFlow:

me-think CAN is just bein un-serious here. Muslim can wear hijab. I remembered in my secondary years, they forced us to sing all christian songs and even read bible despite that we are muslim. can you try it with them?

u went to baptist school. Na koran u wan go read?

will u allow babalawo child to wear his charms to school?. Since evrybody is free to worship oor be a member of any religion.

Show me anywhere in Africa where students go to school with charms or even move about in Church garments or to school. I was only trying to accommodate everyone if that would make peace reign. But we all know our today's education system is modeled to fit Christians perfectly, without regard for Muslims. it's only fair their religious obligation is considered. It is categorically stated in the Quran Muslim females shall cover themselves wherever they go. Nowhere in the Holy Bible it says they should wear Church garments (Cele, Apostolic, MFM or whatever) even to go to Church not to talk of going to any other place.
Native traditional religions are not the issue here. it's between Christians and Muslims.

Baptist Church.
Full stop.

[size=16pt]Hijab Conspiracy !


Interesting indeed does any one knows the basis or origin of this madness called hijab.
Its basically an attempt to assist the RANDY PROPHET AND HIS MALE FOLLOWERS that are incapable of discipling themselves in the sight or presence of the imagery or physique of a Lady that is capable of making them to wet their pant.

So by concealing in totality the IMAGINATION do not run wild and start imaging all sort of things. Hence it was prescribed for the female folks to wear.


Now to the madness.

What is UNIFORM and UNIFORMITY. Does Aregbe and the court knows what it mean ?

Guess the judge is either a mischief maker or possibly not well read or is had in understanding . As you may be aware memorising and regorgitating is not the same as having a thorough understanding of an issue or subject.

Please let somebody explain both UNIFORM and UNIFORMITY to the "learned" Judge

[quote author=Perfectionist11 post=46612659][/quote] u c my friend, no matter how much I try to convince u u've already narrowed ur mind 2d fact dat Muslims are troublemakers. But I want u to know dat u're not as wise as the judge dat gave d verdict. I'm sure u don't even know d details of the judgement he made.

It is welcome ideas let Muslims students wear hijab and let Christian students wear gaments. By allowing this you have alleviate the act of immorality (dresses) and promote decency

Why should they go to court, when the verdict has simply given them and other faiths the right to wear what suits and propagates their religions to school, based on their constitutional right?

It is the fault of the Gov. He was warned of unwarranted crises such as this when he was merging schools of different faiths together. Were students not going to school before Aregbe became Gov? Has there ever been a case of such crises before he became Gov?

He is the architect and the chief executioner of the anarchy.

Back 2 ur post, what fair hearing are u talking about? Pls kindly answer diz questions, does an average Christian girl wear church robe on a normal day? NO, does an average Muslim girl wear Hijab on a normal day? YES. Talk about children of Babalawos, they're not even proud of their religion, u c dem changing Ifayemi to Fayemi, so dey definitely can't wear charms around, besides dat's not their mode o dressing. That's d fair hearing we'r talking about. They should table their grievances 2d court just as their Muslim counterparts did.

Catholics are a branch of Christianity, talking about d NYSC issue, they had 2 send a message across, to assist Muslim Corp Members, and d message was gotten.

They should na. Who dey stop dem before

Buh let's see for how long it'll last.

Is this some sorta competition or what Muslims are known for wearing Hijabs. Whether they abuse it or not is no one's business. Let the kids be competitive in other areas of their lives, rather than in religious 'battles'

Can CAN be CANdid and let things go the right way??



Another FTC in one day!!! Azonto on point!!!

For Y'all quoting me, asking me to go tell my Muslim brothers this or that, FYI, I'm a Christian!!! A proud CATHOLIC!! Buh let's call a spade a spade and not a gardening tool, these Muslims are known for this! It's quite true that high school students wear 'uniforms' to school, buh hey!! Did the Muslim folks JUST started wearing this habit to school??!! Broses and sises, itaf tayed!!! Why is CAN suddenly attacking it now??! Dem no dey see am before

Someone quoted me asking me to tell my Rev.Fr. to go build a mosque opposite my church
The name of my parish is OUR LADY OF FATIMA, Aguda, and it was given that name cos the owner of the Land where the church is built was a Muslim and he was sooooo happy bout the fact that a church will be built on his land. So the Priest of our mother parish gave it that name in honor of Our Lady that appeared to 3 little children in Fatima, Portugal and coincidentally, the daughter of the landlord bears the name Fatima

So itaf tayed wey we don be friends with Muslims

#kickawayreligiouscompetition

Like I always tell whoever cares to listen "salvation is a personal race"

How old are you?
Do you understand the meaning of UNIFORM?
Nobody is asking Muslims not to wear hijab.
But when it comes to UNIFORM in public institutions in a secular state, then you should review your definition of competition.

Judge Falola declared the Muslim female students may wear a “short hijab” which is an headgear and does not disturb the appearance of the remaining uniform when worn correctly.

I didn't want to quote you but I just had to,I asked about the Catholics and the deeper life and you just shoved it aside saying they are just a branch of Christianity and I also asked about why the students were sent out of the sch simply because they wore robes same thing you did and then you're talking about me not been fair...im done like I said let it between us and our creator
