Kenyan Muslims can wear hijab at Christian schools – court

 A court in Kenya has ruled that Christian schools may not ban Muslim girls from wearing hijabs as part of their uniforms. A church-run school had banned female pupils from wearing the headscarf, saying that allowing students to dress differently created discord. But judges ruled education promoters must embrace the principles of diversity and nondiscrimination.

Some 11% of Kenyans are Muslims while 83% follow the Christian faith. State schools already allow girls to wear the hijab
