Rumour has it: Hijabs will now be allowed at Call to Bar
Unconfirmed reports have it that the Nigerian Law School has now conceded in its stance against the use of hijabs during Call to Bar ceremony.
Recall that in December 2017, a Muslim law graduate, Amasa Firdaus stood her ground at the Call to Bar by insisting on wearing her hijab. She was denied access into the ceremony hence lost out on completing the Call to Bar ritual.
At the time, Amasa insisted that there were no rules preventing the use of hijab at Call to Bar as she confidently challenged the decision of the Law School.
According to some social media users, the Nigerian Law School has now rescinded its decision and will call Amasa Firdaus to bar.
