Aregbesola Wants To Islamise Osun State – Angry Nigerian Spit Fire

Published

June 17, 2016

The State government of Osun under the leadership of Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola is on a mission to Islamise Osun. You ask me how? I will explain to you in the subsequent paragraph.

Before I will like to set my ball rolling. Do you know?

According to Section 38 (1) of the Nigerian 1999 constitution and the Article 18 of the Universal Declaration of Human Right, provide a legal basis for secularism in Nigeria:-

“Every person shall be entitled to freedom of thought, conscience and religion, including freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom (either alone or in community with others, and in public or in private) to manifest and propagate his religion or belief in worship, teaching, practice and observance.”

One would ask, how did we got here? “Religious crisis in the State of Osun” The most peaceful State in Nigeria. Nba ! Is Aregbesola the first Muslim governor of Osun State? We’ve had Isiaka Adeleke, and Bisi Akande whom are more religious than this man call Baba Afusa.

The State government of Osun, under the watchful of Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola had introduced same uniform for all the secondary school students in the state and also legalised the use of veil (hijab) in public schools as far back 2013.

Also, it could be recalled that some Students of Baptist High School Iwo Osun State appeared in masquerade attire on 5th February, 2014 Which prevented academic activities in the school for several hours

The freedom of religion as it is stipulated in the Nigerian 1999 constitution means that “Nigeria as a nation has no state or any official religion“.

Following a court verdict on the use of hijab in public schools. Justice Jide Falola of the Osun State High Court had on June 3 gave a verdict that Muslim students should be allowed to wear hijab in all public schools in the state because it was part of their fundamental rights. If the state government decides to implement the judgment that Muslim children are free to wear hijab to schools founded by Christian missionaries.

You would also agree with me that If wearing of hijab by Muslism Student is a right according to Justice Falola verdict. Then why is wearing of choir robes to schools by the Christian students a crime to the State Governor?

Hmmm. Owo baba Kabiru, I hail thee. Gov Rauf Aregbesola on Tuesday said students who wore unauthorised cloths to any public schools in the State would be expelled henceforth.

Why is Aregbesola threatening to expel any students ‘wearing choir robes’ to schools when the Nigerian 1999 constitution, Section 101 states that “The Government of the Federation or of a State shall not adopt any religion as State Religion.”

Finally, it may be argued in the light of this provision that religious symbols (Hijab) have no place on public lands, national edifices, currency, flag, coat of arms, anthem, pledge and other national symbols. Also, Osun State is not a religious state because it has not by the constitution adopted any religion as the State’s official creed.
