Hijab: Parents of Muslim students accuse UI school principal of intimidation

the principal, Mrs Olowe; the School Accountant identified as Mr Odewale and other staff of the school of maltreating his daughter,Mr Badiru told PREMIUM TIMES that despite the court pronouncement, it is illegal for the school to deny his daughter her right to wear hijab outside the school premises.

“On Wednesday, 3rd July 2019, I took my children to school and noticed a small crowd of students gathered about 80 metres to the school gate. My children promptly informed me that the Accounts section was checking payment clearance before allowing them in. “I felt enraged as any reasonable man would when his daughter’s honour is violated. Moreover, that space belongs to the University of Ibadan, a federal institution. That was Mr Odewale’s second time of harassing my daughter over the use of the Hijab.

“This morning, 4th July, I got to the gate and met a horde of UI security men and a couple of gun-wielding policemen at the same place. They had stopped my daughter from proceeding towards the gate. I enquired from the Unibadan Chief Security Officer, who led the team and he insisted that my daughter must remove her Hijab, far from the gate and on UI soil, before she could proceed further.”

Pls put our children in Muslim only schools that litter Ibadan metropolis. Every school has its laws, you cannot FORCE your religion on an institution !

Let the children learn in peace and stop being troublesome.

This crises is unnecessary. There are Secular schools and Islamic schools. Their objectives and mode of dressing are different.

Hijab isn't a teaching aid hence doesn't enhance a child's learning let the pupils keep hijabs home 4 Arabic lessons & let there be peace

What lesson are we teaching the children?

A set of irritating lags
