A Nigerian Father has sued an elementary school in Connecticut on Tuesday for discriminating against and banning his 7-year old daughter from school for 21 days over irrational fears of Ebola because the girl attended a wedding in Nigeria.

Stephen Opayemi filed the lawsuit in federal court in New Haven, Connecticut. He asked a judge to order the schools in Milford, Connecticut, to immediately permit his daughter to return to her third-grade class.
