Boko Haram: FG Urged To Ban Use Of Veils
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.”
