    According to Andrew, David Adejo, Permanent Secretary of the Education Ministry, the students can use corporate/cape size hijab of their various school uniforms.

    He however cautioned that no students should be compelled to use the corporate/cape size hijab on her uniform against her wish.

    “You will recall that the female students have two sets of school uniform which are:

    “i. Skirt and blouse (blouse, short or long sleeve as the case may be) with a hat or beret; and

    “ii. Trousers and kaftan (kaftan below the knee) and a head tie. Please be guided accordingly,” David Adejo said, in the circular.
