Kwara State government and their religious bias

The pronouncement, and approval by Kwara state government that all public schools, including Christian Mission Schools should henceforth wear hijab in the state was the least pronouncement expected from the state given that Nigeria is a secular state, whereby the beliefs and religions of everyone in the country is guaranteed in the constitution that is supreme to every other law of the land. The government of the state has the right to give directives to its own schools but not schools owned by the Christian missions in the state. The emphasis, however is that the problem of the country is not the two major religions, Christianity and Islam but rather, the problem of the country is the human elements that have forgotten that their tenure in any position, even here on earth is temporal. Religion must not be politicized as in this case because ‘’It’s not what goes into your body that defiles you: You are defiled by what comes from your heart (Mark 7:15)’’. We call on the federal government, since this case is still subsisting in court, to call the Kwara State Governor, Abdulrahman Abdulrasaq and all others instrumental to the passage and enforcement of this law to order because Nigeria cannot afford religious crisis which does no adherent of any religion no good.
