The hijab crisis rocking the University of Ibadan International School seems not to near end as the school suspended a female Muslim student, Miss Ikhlass Olasubomi Badiru for wearing Hijab within the school premises.
The two weeks suspension according to a letter, signed by the School Principal, Phebean Olowe, Wednesday, takes effect between 7th and 18th October, 2019.
A report by Daily Post says the school set up a committee to look into the matter and subsequently came out with a report to suspend the student.
Principal of the school, Phebean Olowe in the letter entitled, “Letter of Suspension”, signed on Monday, 30th September 2019 and addressed to Badiru, insisted that the disciplinary committee looked into Badiru’s action and found her guilty of act of impudence to the school authority.
Olowe in the letter said, “At the meeting of the Students Disciplinary Committee (SDC) looking into students’ misconduct held on Wednesday 28th August, 2019, you were found guilty of act of impudence to school authority.
“Your action contravenes the school’s rules and regulations. Therefore, you are to serve two weeks full suspension effective from 7th September 2019 to 18th September, 2019.
“Also, you and your parents shall be expected to report to the counsellor on Monday 21st October 2019 to present a written undertaking to the school to obey rules and regulations throughout your remaining days on the school.”
