Brightolanton:you are so pained you forgot to make use of your frail brain, he wasn't comparing the bank and the Nigerian laws school as regards their ownership. Irrespective of the a body or association and whoever owns it, you have to stick to their code of conduct. As at the moment, your hijab or Allah hat isn't accepted by the NBA, if she doesn't like it, she can refrain from studying law, or better still study Islamic studies.. it's not by for to be called to bar. If you don't like my post you can find a close by toilet and passionately kiss the sit. 7 Likes |

Some people are just being hypocritical on the ground of islamophobic attitude. It is really unreasonable to have compare hijab with these ceremonial style of dressing. Hijab is being known as part of Muslim identity of of which every female muslims are to be adorn with and definitely not for ceremonial or spiritual purposes. The argument is really baseless 1 Like

the courts does not intervene in decisions of voluntary associations, fine argument. however if the decisions of voluntary associations amounts to an offence in the land or violations of human rights, can it still be categorized as non interference in the decisions of a voluntary association. If members of the NBA decides to support the disintegration of Nigeria and sponsors Nnamdi Kanu to blow up the Abuja airport , can NBA raise the objection that the court cannot interfere in their affairs . that should be the most mumuish and illogical reasoning have ever come across. |

lazygal:I have watched people turn this into some silly religious war when it is straight forward. I want changes in the NLS, the issue is that human wont be allowed as long as structured are not changed which we should call for but people are saying it is her right to wear hijab (which is wrong). Unless the dresscode is removed (which I support) the ban on hijab stays. 7 Likes 1 Share |

Campusity: Plus, since has not been called to bar yet, she is not a member of NBA, which means the above is not applicable to her case. Though, the questions is....who set the rules regarding lawyers apparels/regalia in Nigeria? Is it the NBA or some other Act? If it is the NBA, though the above case does not restrict her, but the other question is...can one sue a voluntary association to which he/she wants to join in order to force a rule change within the association? I think one will lack standing in this type of scenario. Maybe, the best approach is politically and those can force NBA to relent. Like you said, she should sue the Council for Legal Education, so she can be called to bar. But I doubt if the council can waive the legal lawyer regalia in Nigeria and she clearly stated that, her goal is to have that changed....All I think the Council can give her is another try at call to bar. 4 Likes |

Mynd44: No religious sentiment required. I defend women's rights/choice to dress half naked, and I will also defend their right/choice to dress modestly. I do not object when colleagues wear risque clothing and yards of human hair, and I expect the same courtesy to be extended to those that choose to be modest or to conceal their hair. If this can lead to an overhaul of the dress code, so be it. Female lawyers are also not allowed to wear trousers. |
