Isiolo; Kenya: The decision by the High Court to bar Muslim girls from wearing the hijab (head gear) and long trousers at St Paul Secondary School in Isiolo County has angered Muslim parents and leaders.
The High Court sitting in Meru on Tuesday temporarily barred the students from wearing the hijab until a case brought by the Methodist Church of Kenya (MCK), which claims to be the school’s sponsor, is heard and determined.
