oyb:Another derisive comment from your pained soul. Was I the one who said they do not wear hijabs under helmets? I only said the heat must be stifling for those who do so. I also pointed out that in Quebec and Ontario, safety concerns overrule religious preferences or dressing. Is that a lie? Obviously "pathetic, backward miseducated village cretins " must be your middle name. That is why you are stating it with relish. 2 Likes |

Mynd44: Rule 36 (a) of the Rules of Professional Conduct in the Legal Profession Revised (2007) expressly decries the "wearing of apparel and ornament" that draws attention to a legal practitioner appearing before a judge, the hijab does not in anyway fall into such apparel ornament that can be decried upon, because it is a constitutional right that no bye-law can suppress on a permanent basis. Again, can a judgement in respect to an organization she's yet to be part of affect her? This is a blanket judgement. |

Vivere: care to post a link to this? none of you have been able to come up with anything other than empty conjecture. show me unequivolcally quebec safety standards that say specifically that a hijab should not be worn with a hard hat you see that? that is a female engineer in schlumberger , an international oil servicing firm with the same rigid safety standards across every continent this is one in halliburton these are companies with much more rigid safety standards than vivere and sons quebec oil company |

Guyman02: you see why i call most of you miseducated dolts? you don't bother to learn the simplest things about Islam, you just start talking BS if you are too daft to even tell the difference between a hijab and a niqab, you belong with your fellow ignoramus vivere who says a hijab is unsafe to wear |

armadeo:. My simple response is: “there is an automatic membership of the NBA upon being called to the Bar”. As long as one has elected to join and remain within the noble profession, he is a member and must comply with the regulations set by the body. In the light of the above, I would partially agree with u BUT u become a member of the NBA not when u decide but rather after u have met all the laid down requirements I.e passing the exams and observing certain ethics, customs and conventions. This lady has failed to comply with one of the traditions of the profession which from the induction ceremony was aware of. Whether the tradition is right or wrong is another argument but as it stands today that the norm. Why did she wait till the day of her call to bring up this issue? I would like to ask her how she appeared in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd term law dinners. Cos I'm sure she removed the hijab then. It's her choice to go in this direction but I'm very sure that if she like she should go to the Supreme Court, she would get no remedy because the Council of Legal education has the unfettered power to declare a person fit and proper to be called to the Nigerian Bar based on laid down rules. 5 Likes |

babaskool: My only conclusion in this case is that Miss Firdaus Amasa has decided not to be a lawyer. How can she be aspiring to become a lawyer and not ready to obey the rules? Why will she be contesting what she willingly subscribed to? Volenti non fit injuria. |

Caseless:The hijab definitely falls under the category of an apparel that draws attention to the legal practitioner, appearing before a judge. It is not an inconspicuous item of clothing, like a lapel pin, a pocket square or a handkerchief. 1 Like |

Vivere:how can something you're given by constitution be taken away a rule? Hijab does not fall under the "apparel" the rule decried upon. |

oyb: Surely you can express your obsession for the hijab, without mentioning my moniker? Or are you just in the mood to troll? And even though it offends you immensely, I still maintain that the hijab is NOT inconspicuous. A material of about 2 yards or more drapped over the head, and around the neck, is not inconspicuous. Unless the word 'inconspicous' has another meaning in your dictionary.... 1 Like |

that one can never be a successful lawyer. if she think she is greater than law of an institution that has been created before she was born. is she the only Muslim lady who has been called to bar before? is she the only Muslim lady there wit hijab? she has no point. good and successful lawyer like Gani had respect for laws. so who is she rubbish. if they amend the law of the institution because of her then that means that Nigeria is a useless nation. nobody should be greater than the law of an organization or institution. 3 Likes |

oyb: It does not say a hijab should not be worn underneath a hard hat, but if any item of religious clothing (e.g. hijab) conflicts or interferes with health and safety standards, then employers are not under an obligation to accommodate its use, by their employees. Here, read this: Safety considerations are often an issue raised when it comes to religious attire or comportment. If an accommodation is likely to cause significant health and safety risks, this could be considered “undue hardship.” |
