Osun State Christian Association of Nigeria (OSCAN) has ordered all female Christian students in public schools in the state to wear church garments to schools, beginning from Monday.
It will be recalled that a judge of Osun State High Court, Justice Jide Falola had earlier delivered a judgement last Friday in favour of a case instituted by Osun State Muslim Community against the State Government on the right of female Muslim students in public schools in the state to use hijab on their school uniforms.
CAN faulted the judgement in a communique signed by its Osun State Chairman, Rev. Elisha Ogundiya while noting that the association would ask Christian pupils to wear their garments such as those for Boys Brigade, ushers, Girls Guide, choristers, band boys, white garments, if Governor Rauf Aregbesola decided to implement the court verdict.
