An Overview by University Authorities

The Registrar of the University, Dr. ‘Bola Adekola, made the announcement on behalf of the University Management.

Students who fail to adhere to these dress code policies will be subjected to disciplinary actions consistent with the University’s standing rules and governance structures.

Recalling Recent Campus Events: The Incident on 11th September 2023

The statement also took the opportunity to address a recent event that disrupted the academic atmosphere. On the morning of September 11, 2023, certain individuals protesting under the umbrella of religious freedoms caused a disturbance at the University’s Ceremonial Gate. This interference not only hampered academic undertakings but also disrupted the usual flow of business activities within the campus.

Violation of Community Rights and Restoration of Normalcy

This act of protest was identified by the University Management as an infringement on the rights of other individuals who were part of the campus and its environs. The statement assured the academic community that the situation had been promptly managed. As of 8:45 a.m. on the same day, the University was able to restore its typical operational schedule, thereby dismissing any lingering concerns.

A Stern Warning to Campus Disruptors

In addition to offering reassurances about the swift return to normalcy, the University’s statement also issued a stringent warning to the protesters. It strongly urged them to desist from obstructing the everyday activities of lawful, rule-abiding members of the University community. The statement further emphasised the University Management’s unwavering commitment to upholding order, ensuring security, and maintaining steadfastness to its established dress code directives. The goal is to make sure academic activities continue in a harmonious and uninterrupted manner.

Addressing the Status of Hijab-Wearing Students

To allay potential concerns, the statement specified that students who choose to wear the hijab as part of their religious practices are not in violation of the University’s dress code and continue to participate actively in academic activities. However, the University’s position remains firm against any facial coverings that impede the straightforward identification of individuals within the campus.

By underlining its policies, FUNAAB aims to provide a balanced environment where individual freedom does not compromise the safety and well-being of the larger community. It is a delicate but essential equilibrium, crucial for fostering a conducive academic atmosphere
