Please, retweet this and let it go viral. This is oppression for Muslims PRESS RELEASE 24th Shawwal 1447AH (12th April 2026) THE MOVE TO RETURN PUBLIC SCHOOLS TO MISSIONARY IN OGUN STATE: A RECKLESS DECEIT OF INSTITUTIONAL BIGOTRY AND EDUCATIONAL SABOTAGE The Muslim Students' Society of Nigeria (MSSN), Ogun State Area Unit, received with profound alarm and unrestrained indignation, the declaration credited to His Excellency, Governor Dapo Abiodun of Ogun State on April 10, 2026, while receiving Catholic Church officials, the Apostolic Nuncio to Nigeria, and the Catholic Bishops of Ijebu-Ode and Abeokuta, and in a bid to please his guests, announced that all missionary schools in Ogun State would be returned to their owners. As a Society, faithful to its mandate of protecting the academic, religious, and civic interests of Muslim students across Ogun State, considers it a solemn and unavoidable duty to respond to this declaration with the candour and conviction that the gravity of its consequences demands. It is the considered position of Ours that the return of public schools to missionary bodies is, in its entirety, inimical to the educational welfare of Muslim students, injurious to the fabric of inter-religious coexistence that Ogun State has long nurtured, and fundamentally at variance with the constitutional obligations of a government elected to serve all citizens without religious distinction. We therefore call upon His Excellency to reconsider this declaration in the overall interest of peace, unity, and educational progress of the good people of Ogun State. THE DECEPTION CALLED "PARTNERSHIP" Governor Abiodun's use of "partnership" to describe this transfer is fundamentally dishonest. A genuine partnership requires mutual contribution and shared accountability; what is proposed is a unilateral surrender of public assets built and sustained by Ogun State taxpayers to private religious control. This is not private sector participation but the privatisation of public education for a specific religious constituency. The claim that this serves "development" lacks empirical support. Evidence from Nigerian states where such returns have occurred consistently shows the opposite outcomes: restricted access, denominational bias in admissions, prohibitive fee increases, and systematic marginalisation of non-Christian students. THE LEGAL AND CONSTITUTIONAL ABSURDITY These schools were legitimately taken over by the state in the through democratic intervention that dismantled exclusionary gatekeeping and opened quality education to all children regardless of faith. Since then, successive governments have invested incalculable resources: constructing facilities, deploying teachers as civil servants, and expanding access across every local government area. Old students of these aged long schools have been investing heavily on the majority of these schools across the state when the current Administration is busy with empty promises. Governor Abiodun possesses no constitutional authority to alienate these publicly funded assets without legislative approval or published transition framework. Section 18 of the 1999 Constitution places the obligation of free and compulsory public education squarely upon government not upon mission houses or dioceses. 1/2

There are probably Muslims among the bystanders who didn't think to intervene and prevent this aberration. It is crazy that we keep going in circles year in, year out over this Hijab issue while having a Muslim as the head of JAMB.

RE: Hijab Discrimination at Esther Oshikoya CBT Centre The attention of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has been drawn to an incident at the Esther Oshikoya CBT Centre in Ibadan. Through its monitoring mechanisms, the Board observed the occurrence during the screening exercise for the first session of the examination day on Thursday, 16th. The Board promptly intervened by calling the ad hoc official involved to order and issuing immediate instructions that no candidate wearing a hijab should be asked to remove or alter it. The Board wishes to state clearly that this act was neither perpetrated by the centre nor part of its official protocol. Rather, it was the action of an overzealous ad hoc staff member who failed to adhere to the Board’s established guidelines regarding candidates’ religious attire. JAMB categorically affirms that such actions are not in line with its screening procedures. The Board respects the religious beliefs and customs of all Nigerians and has addressed the situation promptly and appropriately. We assure all candidates, regardless of faith, that their rights to religious expression including dressing remain a cornerstone of our policy. For the avoidance of doubt, all ad hoc staff have been further briefed and reminded of the approved procedures for screening candidates at all centres Fabian Benjamin, Ph.D OrgExpert and PCA JAMB

For knowledge sake, are there indigenous Hausa names, aside, the modifications from Arabic and of course, Islam. If they exist, I am interested in knowing them
