Earlier, Vanguard reported that a
human rights activist in Sapele, Delta
State, Mr James Idoghor, has called on
the Federal Government to ban the
wearing of veils across the country,
noting that hoodlums were perpetrating
crimes with them.

Idogho, who expressed concern over
the inability of the Federal
Government to find the over 200
missing Chibok girls, and the
continuous killings and unleashing of
mayhem on innocent citizens,
particularly in northern parts of the
country, said,

“Most of the perpetrators of the
heinous crimes usually wear veils to
disguise their gender and motives.”
Adding that,

“No democratic country will tolerate
any religious norm that has turned
dangerous to the precious lives of her
citizenry. This government should not
pay deaf ears to the cries of her
citizens. People are dying in their
dozens by the day. The wearing of
veils must be stopped.”

Do you agree with this motive
considering wearing of Veils is an
integral part of the Muslim culture in
Nigeria? Join the conversation with
