mass hysteria, or anything u call it

is the below not in the constitution:

Section 38 (1) of the 1999 constitution and Article 18 of the Universal Declaration of Human Right, provide:“Every person shall be entitled to freedom of thought, conscience and religion, including freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom (either alone or in community with others, and in public or in private) to manifest and propagate his religion or belief in worship, teaching, practice and observance.

may be it has been erased.

Please any Muslim here should show where in the Quran female was instructed to to use hijab. I strongly believe muslim that wear it is because of the desert area and due to sand breeze that cause blindness. Same thing apply to Christians. Celestine Church of Christ don't wear shoe or sleepers to worship just because God instruct Moses to off his shoe. They will trek with foot from their house to church. Muslim and Christian needs understanding of the Bible and Quran
The quranic and constitutional backing you have below.


Chapter 24 verse 30-31 of the Glorious Holy Qur'an says:

“... Enjoin believing women to COVER THEIR GAZE and guard their modesty; that they should not display their beauty and ornaments except what (must ordinarily) appear thereof; that THEY SHOULD DRAW THEIR VEILS OVER THEIR BOSOMS AND NOT DISPLAY THEIR BEAUTY except to their husbands, their fathers, their husband’s father, their sons, their husband’s Sons, their brothers or their brother’s Sons or their sisters’ sons or other women, or the slaves whom their right hands possess, ..."

It follows from the verse above that wearing of hijab by Muslim women is a Quranic injunction so a Muslim female is bound to obey it without question.

The next point is whether a Muslim female can capitalize on the provision of Glorious Qur’an to insist that she is entitled to wear Hijab everywhere. The answer is obviously in the affirmative.
Subsection (1) of section 38 of the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (2011 as amended), it provides as follows:

"Every person shall be entitled to freedom of thought, conscience and religion...and IN PUBLIC or IN PRIVATE) to MANIFEST AND PROPAGATE his RELIGION or BELIEF in worship, teaching, PRACTICE and OBSERVANCE" (emphasis mine)

I do not hold you to any "supernatural" status - you're a creation filled with flaws just like everyone. But the common sense of discernment that's innate is thrown away and here is my pain.

she hasn't broken any law and by dressing the way she did , she has fought a just cause and constitution given its due supremacy over any "law school rules" .
the law school rules which she knows explicitly states dat she can't have her hair covered for c2b. ignorance of d law is never an excuse, but equity can step in and grant u relief in ignorance of facts- an option still not available to her, cos she knew from d onset. bro's, d constitution is d ground norm, but d rules of d b council off legal education has not contravened it. so should I now say. because d constitution gives me a right. to freedom of speech- I have a right os slander someone? ur rights are subject to a lot of things. that's y dat same constitution always says say subject to so nd so or in pursuant to so nd so, or d provisions o so nd so notwithstanding. that is to tell u dat notn is absolute

Buhari's daughter waived her fundamental human right's, she was entitled to protest like Firdaus but chose not to. We should never be denied our fundamental human right's.
We love to focus on innanities, how is wearing a hijab discretely under a wig a problem? Of all the problems facing the legal systems in this country, some of us are too daft to think out of the box and focus on what we shouldn't be focusing on?
I am glad the NBA are looking into this and they have sent a strong message out that tolerance and diversity will be embraced fully.
The girl has done extremely well to be called to bar and she will be, anything else is a waste of time.

[s] When will u people think out of ur bigotry. What exception is there to make when d constitution clearly supports fundamental human right. Are u brain dead to understand d fact that the constitution supercedes the rule of any institution in the country? Are u people even thinking before coming to claim rubbish on social media. Consider the school fees expended on u as waste [/s]
You're the religious zealot here whose brain isn't functioning at all, and you wrote Arrant nonsense in a bid to defend the defaulter. How does the rules made trample on your human right?. If you meant to say that it's her right to wear whatever she wants then invariably you're saying lawyers should wear anything to appear in court including boxers/ swimsuits, bumshorts etc, since it's their human right to do whatever they want. Ask yourself if there's sense in that?.

Ordinarily, you'd expect buhari's daughter to go the way of everyone simply to avoid the wrong belief of breaking the law cos she's the president's daughter you guys will naturally hold against her and call her father unprintable names.

She(halima) can't even tell you Firdaus is wrong for putting on hijab - either by law of the land or that of religion.

That Buhari's daughter doesn't wear hijab doesn't mean others shouldn't.


Tell me, which law has Fridaus broken?

The Lawyers’ Dress Code as stipulated by
1. Professional Conduct for the legal profession Rule 6(b)
2. The Nigeria Law School Code of Conduct Rule 29(a)

The moment you can be educated to be something else, it becomes a privilege. She wants to be a lawyer, she can be a doctor or a nurse.

Some people are just hell bent on being stupid. How can u study for years, attend law school, only to insist on wearing a hijab to ur call to bar, there by going against the very law u're going to practice.



I always laugh whenever I hear or read comments from people like you. Goats like you are why the word "docile" was invented. Your stupid gullibility without asking question is what keeps allowing some people somewhere misrepresent issues for you and you will swallow them hook, line and sinker. The constitution already supports the lady's choice of dressing and very soon dull heads like u will b tutored on the supremacy of the constitution so u will b well informed.

Outer garment can be your sweater, your raincoat, your jacket.

All these small lawyers Taya me. So what you read in law school told you that school Rule is superior to section 38 and 42 of the Nigerian constitution? You see why our lawyers only follow politicians?
Read that together with section 1(3) of the Nigerian constitution.

What this small girl is telling you is that these rule negates her rights under the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Roza Parks is aware of the segregation rule before she sat in front of the bus,nothing would have change want of that singular act.

There was a rule that female soldiers should not be at combat zone before we fought to reverse it

Time changes and so does rule. Tolerance is the key word. Wearing hijab neatly tucked into her law gown does not diminish her capacity neither does it infringe on your fundamental human right,therefore why hate?

Islamophobia is wrong. Even Britain where u borrowed this legal system from hv gone beyond this

Like I always say, the world is getting to its terminal.
We are in that time where wearing an hijab will be queried and a homosexual will be clapped for.
That time trying to being decent will be muffed at while a transgender will be cheered up.

And I see the christians on this thread also cheering for this because they 'hate' the hijab not knowing they are in next inline.
Check worldwide news, countries have began the gradual stop to all religious activities while they vote in sodomy.
Like someone said, the biggest feat of Iblis is that he made people believe Iblis does not exist.
