The Osun State Chapter of the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN has insisted Christian pupils in the state will continue to wear church garments and other apparels to public schools if Muslim students continued wearing hijab.
The Vice Chairman of CAN in the state, Pastor Moses Ogundeji, said this in an interview with journalists at the venue of the prayer meeting of the association called on hijab in Osogbo on Wednesday.
