Student denied from taking exam after she refused to remove her hijab [video]

A lecturer confronted female student in the lecture hall at Afe Babalola University, ABUAD, demanding that she take off her headscarf which led to a dramatic scene.

The lecturer asked the female student, who was wearing a headscarf, to take it off before going into the test room, but she refused.

As a result, the lecturer forbade her from going inside the exam room and recorded her identity on camera, even though she covered her face.

This caused a ruckus among the students, many of whom angrily disagreed with the lecturer’s choice and demanded that the lady be permitted to enter the exam room.

But if she is not going against the school’s dress code, then the lecturer is MAD and must face disciplinary actions .. I hate nonsense.”
