Still on Ilorin and the crisis of identity


Sir: Ilorin long ago came to terms with its identity. As a united community forged by the religion of Islam from diverse ethnic groups, Yoruba,  Fulani, Hausa, Gobir, Kanuri, Gwari, Nupe, Barba and Kamberi; disturbed only by those who cannot come to terms with the facts of history. If the harmony that exists among these ethnic groups is well replicated in this country, Nigeria would have been a great place.
The hijab case is indeed the Supreme Court, on appeal by the Kwara State Chapter of CAN. Judgement at both the trial court and the Appeal Court favoured government position that wearing hijab is an exercise of freedom of religion or words to that effect. The take-over of mission schools in the 1970s affected these institutions across the whole country, not just the North. The practice of grant-in-aid thereby ceased because they were now all public schools, maintained by government as such. In some states the names of schools were even changed to reflect public ownership.
