Do you support the ban on wearing full-face veil in Nigeria to prevent suicide attacks?
Aminu Gamawa asks. Recently Nigeria, Chad and Cameroon have suffered repeated suicide attacks by women, girls and even men disguised as females. Last month, Chad banned the full-face veil after series of Boko Haram suicide bombing carried out by attackers disguised as women wearing veils. Cameroon followed suit by also banning burkas and face-covering veils in the aftermath of suicide bombings by females in burkas and veils, that killed many people in the Northern part of the country. Is banning the full-face veil a good counter-terrorism measure? Should Nigeria do same? What do you guys think?
