The Sultan of Sokoto, Saad Abubakar, also the spiritual leader of Nigeria's Muslim, sits on his throne during his coronation ceremony in Sokoto, Northern Nigeria, March 3, 2007. REUTERS/Afolabi Sotunde - RTR1N1ZMThe Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs , the umbrella body of Muslims across the country, has accused the management of the University of Ibadan of stifling the voices of Muslims on the campus and ostracising them during key decision-making processes on the campus.

The meeting was chaired by the group’s president-general and Sultan of Sokoto, Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar. According to the communique, the Council alleged that the university under the current administration has made it a habit to discriminate against Muslim students in classrooms, and deny Muslim academic and non-academic staff from participating in key decision-making processes on the campus.

Some Muslim parents have accused the management of denying the pupils what they called their inalienable right to religion and staged a series of protests to drive home their point.Under the umbrella of parents of Muslim students of University of Ibadan International School, a case has been filed against the school. But while awaiting judgement, the school suspended a female student for two weeks for allegedly wearing hijab after school hours.
