Lols

I correct that statement. Why would MURIC say like juju priest? We have freedom of worship. Do you know his religion MURIC?

How does this man dressing concerned anyone.

There are more serious issues they need to address - insecurities, bloodsheds...

Is this our problem in this country…. Why waste time energy and resources on this kind of bull

Hmm.....

This is laughable….the selective amnesia these people have every time is fascinating. The Supreme Court ruling opened the doors and windows to all manner of religious dressing in court. Hence the need to reclassify that precedent. Imperatively we will learn again in court.

🤣😂 Fully in support

They just want Nigeria to be the next Taliban

MalcolmInfiniti is out of this world A complete definition of what a learned advocate should be. A man of integrity per excellence. Posterity will be kind to you for not joining the conspiracy silence going on in a time like this. Thanks sir your God is bigger.

And they never petition wearing hijab to school right?

An exercise in futility. Idle bunch.

Why muric particularly getting irritated by this dressing, we're Africans and Nigerians that's it before prioritizing one religion against other practices. You don't own the monopoly, focus on yours and let others be

Freedom to expression

Their papa

😂😂😂😂

Give Nigeria to MURIC to govern and you will have hell on earth.

Is this even an issue? They could speak on this but kept mute on Deborah Samuel's case...hmmm, humans!

If this country break down its the fault of Islamic people. Is this country meant for you only!!!! You no nothing about laws and freedom of a citizen.

Arrant nonsense! They can't blow hot and cold at the same time. If you can wear your religious wear to court then every other person has the right to do same. The law is for all.

Arrant nonsense! How is that their headache?

Is pay back time

All are religion.

Seems they are mad.

A lot of religious organizations lack serious work to do... That is why they have time for EVERYTHING.

I am not surprised because Islam is just a religion all about violence… Mtchewwww

This group are causing serious problems for this nation ooooo

They always want their opinion be superior. Mumu forgets that the tradition is older than any religion. I don't blame you. Reason why Muslim - Muslim APC is a 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

Pls tell this so called MURIC that there's freedom of worship in Nigeria. Anyone has a choice of worshiping whatever he or she has faith in. People worship crocodile in India and mourned when the crocodile gave up the ghost.

Hypocrites

Do we have a court to start with

Why? He has the right to, if hijabs will be allowed....Muric abeg rest

He is free to wear his religious attire. Sabi una dey craze. Meet your senior brother. Nonsense!

Insanity everywhere

Nonsense talk

Make thunder wey not get break visit person wey dey against this lawyer.

Somebody should please help me tell MURIC that i Eke Idemmili said they are sick mentally

Lol.

This Islamic group are not serious! Mad people everywhere! I'm just sick and tired of all these people who want to continue with this nonsense by these fulani terrorists. Anyways, Biafrans are Exiting Nigeria come 2023 so we will not continue with this nonsense called Nigeria.

Misplaced priorities

Muric must stop this nonsense principles of intimidation against their so called gullible nigeerians because they don't own the zoological contraption called nigeria. Do they feel that they are above the law? Enough is enough fulani terrorist janjaweed.

Everything about and in Nigeria is religious, not political.

They are mad.

Mental craze the worry this Islamic group, una wet wan convert Nigeria to ijab fashion.... I no blame una sha

What about them that dress like masquerade in the name of religion everywhere they go?

Wetin concern Islamic on wetin dis loyal wear to chamber?

Equal right ooo, make una leave d man alone.

The worthless islamic group should know that they can not islamize nigerians

Most useless body I have ever seen

This association called MURIC just want to gain cheap popularity

This is why we want to go separate ways because everything is biased

So, he has no right to freedom of worship, expression and association? The rights only ended with Muslim girls wearing religious head gear to public schools? MURIC

More lawyers should wear their traditional attire to court. Fulani led zoogeria has caused more harm than good. Muric shit, have you petitioned malami to obey court judgment on mazi Nnamdi kanu? Have you petitioned for gumi to be arrested and questioned over his terror link?

It's always the Islamic group...Troublesome people.

How is this a problem for them? Or is Nigeria an Islamic State/Republic?

We can actually help in identifying DUBLICATED voters registered voters , UNDERAGED VOTERS in ur UNITS please kindly follow this few steps.....thanks as we move towards the EMANCIPATION of new NIJA👇👇👇👇

Wike song, as e dey pain them

Hummmm, Nigeria is a secular county, is not for Islam

MURIC na dummies aswear 🫣🤣😂🥹

Nigeria is a crime against humanity, the thieves that created Nigeria 🇳🇬 British/American hand it to Arab what is arabic doing in Naira

Before i usually think the uneducated muslims are the problem of this country Nigeria, but now haaaa, I see that education doesn’t count again for Islamist, simple peaceful coexistence. Muric go and ask about your ancestors that accommodates the Islamist when they arrive Nigeria.

Its all bullshit....its freedom of religion,no one can't kill its human right

Respect every religion. Since u wear hijab to sch, a traditionalist can't also wear his to work. Let's all be mad together. Now u complaining.

These guys must think they own this country 😂

I am a Muslim but sincerely the group is becoming a nuisance.

But it's ok to wear hijab?I laugh in arabic 👩‍🚀👩‍🚀

They are jobless

Then all the students that used hijab to school must also be punished because wearing it to school is not in our constitution and wearing religious garment to school is neither . Are you guys really crazy. Better leave that man

Muric is afraid of juju, 😀😀😀

This muric is very useless

The man is a clown and deserves to be derobbed .

You cannot petition and challenge is believe, Nigeria is a circular state. Christian. Muslims and Traditional. He practice what he believes

Ahhh ah how’s that?

I haven't seen this people fight an actual cause

But you people can put on your religious clothes to school and it's allowed by the court of law, I think this man is also putting on his religious clothes to the court, so it's should be allowed also.

Lol😁 are you scared to swear upon Ogun instead of Bible or Quran? It will reduce curruption anyways. Nigeria's swear upon Bible or Quran at will because they found out it was just a paper and ink by the Hmmm 🤔🤔🤔 I'll tell you the rest when I create my twitter platform.

Meaning of MURIC☝🏿… They are useless 😂😂

Fanatics on the loose

That Group is another disaster in this country.

No body has got the right the lawyer is displaying his rights to say any nonsense about the lawyer. His dressing is very good.
