Former Kaduna Central Senator, Shehu Sani has reacted to the controversy involving the use of Hijab by female students in Kwara State.
He added that the government should allow students whose parents want them to wear a Hijab as part of their school uniform while those against it should not be forced to wear it.
In a tweet, the former lawmaker disclosed that students in Kaduna State have been practising dual uniforms for decades.
According to Sani: “The Hijab as a School uniform should NOT cause any controversy. Those who want their children to wear it should be allowed to wear it.
“Those who don’t want their children to wear it should not be forced to do so. Dual uniforms have been used in Kaduna for over two decades.”
