The seven-man panel of the apex court in its judgment on Friday upheld the judgment of the Court of Appeal sitting in Lagos on July 21, 2016, which quashed the judgment delivered by Justice Grace Onyeabo of the Lagos State High Court on October 17, 2014 in favour of the state government on hijab restriction in public schools in the state.

An Islamic group, the Muslim Rights Concern , on Friday commended the Supreme Court of Nigeria judgment approving the use of hijab in public schools in Lagos State.

Though two of the panel members opposed the judgment, five other members held that restriction of use of hijab in public schools is a violation of constitutional rights of Muslim female students. Reacting to the judgment, MURIC Director, Prof Ishaq Akintola, in a statement described the judgment as a Divine victory over social truth.

“We call on the Lagos State Government to immediately implement the letter and spirit of this judgment. It becomes imperative for LASG to issue a circular on the approval of hijab in all its public schools without any delay. MURIC had earlier demanded the issuance of this circular but LASG ignored our demand to date.

This is dangerous diversity,real yorubas can foolishly allow hijab in Lagos public schools? It means fulani has taken away Ilorin and Lagos from Yoruba. Real Yorubas must not allow such to exist.Yoruba will soon become Hausas if Yoruba continue like this.

. Maintainability

Hypocrites

All Christians and Babalawo children too should put on their costumes too.

West has been fulanis with islam

Hummm, students all over the world are carrying out inventions in different human endeavours. We fighting here in Nigeria on forcing hijab on our students. Of what importance is hijab to our to quest for development ? Will wearing hijab solve our economic problems ?

emilokan

Nigeria is not Islamic country why are doing this to ourselves

This is dangerous diversity,real yorubas can foolishly allow hijab in Lagos public schools? It means fulani has taken away Ilorin and Lagos from Yoruba. Real Yorubas must not allow such to exist.Yoruba will soon become Hausas if Yoruba continue like this.

Celestial and Cherubim and Seraphim can also wear their sutana. We are African, black people with our own beliefs first before we accept these religion first.

I thought this Hijab was on wore by Muslim. Why impose it on all schools in South west, are they all Muslim in the south west. Something is not right.

Yeruba wake or you are gone

Nnamdi14108597 Is Yoruba a conquered tribe? They should not make this costly mistake.

If they want to write exam enough expo with test book oya na

As a lover of freedom, I support the supreme court's ruling. However, the supreme court should also maintain the same energy when they are entertaining the case of traditional believers wearing Ifunpa, Olounde, Ibante , ado etc to school. Lawyers call it judicial precedent.

Omo na to dress my pikin like herbalist they go school... Since we all want to be mad, he go even carry calabash with sacrifice inside

This people have an agenda

If you like tie wrapper, the main thing is to change the economic situation of this country for the better. Vote Peter Obi, vote Labour Party.

How did this even make it to the supreme Court. Hijab is just another piece of attire. They should allow them wear it

Gradually Lagos State will be taken over after this supreme Court will rule establishment of HISBAH another step for final take over.

With all this shit, we are just woming up for future crisis

Including private mission schools?

This is an example of northern Nigerian schools and most of these girls are Christians but the are forced to wear this rubbish against their wish .. nobody is fighting these Islamic lunatics there and they are here ranting and making noise up and down

Are Christians allowed to go to northern schools without hijab

It's a victory for Justice.

APC is gradually succeeding in their plans to islamize Nigeria. I pity those supporting apc because of poverty. They will surely be sting also. After rain no dey talk for one man roof.

Terrorists is coming

It's high time Yorubas governor arrest this man Ishaq Akintola before he cause religion crisis in Yoruba land,the man is pushing for religion disharmony in southwest with his unguided utterance

We get court in Nigeria

Excuse me o, is it including universities?

First they have close down schools in the name of Asuu boko haram, now is hijab Islamization agenda agending

So all schools in the SW are founded by Muslims! Let's be rightly guided to avert chaos.

South West is turning into ;:::::::;;;;;;;;; state and are gradually been taking over by ;;;;;;;;;;;!;;;;;;;;

The problem of this country is religion.Does it contribute any development on educational sector?

Na from clap them dey tru tru enter dance anyway!.

That's how they infiltrate terrorism in schools! I fear for una

Until traditionalist comes to school with their own. We trivialize things so much in this world.

You are on your own MURIC...

And wear can’t I wear my gbètugbètu or àfọ̀ṣẹ to school?

Religious law will set the south backward as it will give room for religious extremist to take over the affair of the south ,mostly those in the middle east

To me, this shouldn't had been an issue in the first place to the extent of involving the court if not of the religious extremism and ethnicity. It should be a free world where everyone respects the believes and rights of others simple.

And many south western youths will still go out and vote APC Muslim- Muslim government, hmm I pity them so much

Of what relevance is hijab in a place of study. How's that even an issue in first place. We just like wasting our effort on irrelevant things

Bombs can easily fit in the Hijabs without you suspecting it,

Ahead of the party ticket combination?

Yoruba has finally been concurred nice one

With all the things wey Dey this country nah weitin concern all this one be this ……

Hijab is just a mode of dressing for Middle Easterners! It has nothing to do with religion. These people do not understand their own religion!

How can Southerners study in the same school with people like this? knowing fully well that it is people with this kind of religion believe that burnt Deborah alive.

Misplaced priorities What a country

Extremism is gaining popularity here gradually 🙄🤔

Make all northern states allow Christian’s to drink alcohol whenever they want

The hijab problem is solved but very soon these islamic cleric will begin the agitation of another. Maybe it will be the use of arabic language to teach chemistry.

Wait o this islamic group don dy dey active pass federal government 😂

That's how it starts before you know the entire SW is islamized then the move to the next

Lol. Well most of their children is abroad Wetin concern dem

All these fanatics sef

A country without religion is a country with great prosperity

The court will quote sections they like to state No discrimination of worship and bla bla bla Nigeria is a secular state, not a Muslim country.

Nigeria is fucked I hope when they’ll start killing y’all I won’t be here

Islam has damaged, Africa, and Nigeria in particular. The school represents the formal schemes where individuals comply with the requirements of the code of conduct by wearing appropriate school uniforms. Unfortunately, Muslims want to turn the school into a religious gathering.

That's how afghan started

Chinemerm4 Se have been Islamize

If that hijab will increase the intellectual, moral and spiritual potential of the students wearing it, then it should be laudable. But if it fails in any of these, then this is a grave misplaced priority.

Sometimes I do find it difficult to believe our dear country isn’t working the way it should,this has nothing to do with the growth of the country nor the Education sector,awon Oloribu Gbogbo won ti fe sor 9ja di idakuda.

Supreme court should rule on no hisbah in the 5 northern states. Very simple. Like play like play South West will be islamists

I really don’t see this as a big deal rather is a means of encouraging them to change there ideology in there believe.

Hijab wearing is political motivated than the religion beliefs itself, politicians behind this move are not necessarily incline to wearing of hijab because thier children are not following the practice of wearing hijab, they live abroad, it's just politics.

I don't blame him, I blame the failed system.

They never M/M ticket oo.. This one dey happen.. If they con chos M/M nko

Please everyone should not just glance through the headlines, actually read the text inside and see how MURIC thinks. MURIC is a dangerous group sowing seeds of religious pluralism and extremist views.

Their agenda is working, that is why they want their evils party to pick Muslim Muslim tickets but God pass them

All these religion oyibo people carry give una..... Make una dey wear una native doctor cloths too go school.....

anything concerning Islamic religion you will support from all angles , but to fight corruption very weak response .

Brains washed still going on in Africa 🌍 especially in the Zoo

So they can easily carry Bombs to school and wipe out Yoruba youths

If you don't know the rulings on hijab, isn't it better to keep quiet and ignore? It's not as if they are forcing it in others. If you're bringing other religion attires, it's out of it because the attires have the time and not always. For hijab, it's a must use always for ladies

All northern states should allow selling and drinking of alcohol 🍺 in public places

This can only be seen in the South West and Northern States, because most of them are dominated and are ruled by the Muslims

😀😂🤣

And all northern state should allow Southerners drink alcohol

Na so the thing dey take start

This one of the things we will be seeing with APC muslim-Muslim ticket.

MURIC is right on this and Hijab wearing in all public schools across South West can be achieved. We just have to go through a legal means. Our girls will put on hijabs in public schools in SW without any fear of intimidation.

Hope Christian girls will also be allowed to attend Muslim schools without hijab

Anybody or any Muslim who feels to wear hijab should wear not by force💯
