Muslim Women ‘Attack’ Samira Bawumia Over What They Call “Her Inappropriate Dressing”
A group of Muslim women known as Hijabbis have expressed their displeasure with the mode of dressing of the second lady, Mrs Samira Bawumia.
According to the group, the second lady, by virtue of her position, is supposed to be a role model of young Islamic ladies, however, her mode of dressing does the direct opposite.
Speaking at a press conference, the leader of the group, Hajia Mariam Abubakar explained that out of more than 6, 000 verses in the Quran, about half a dozen refer specifically to the way a woman should dress or walk in the public.
According to Hajia Abubakar, the clearest verse on the requirement of modest dress is Surah 24:31, telling women to guard their private parts and draw their Khimar over their bosom.
“As Muslims, the rule of dress for women is modest; the word HIJAB means “ Cover” and refers to a specific form of veil worn by some Muslim women”. She said.
“H.E Hajia Samira Bawumia who is supposed to be a role model to our Muslim youth have decided to dress like a model and a fashion Icon exposing her feminine attractions to men which have influenced their Muslim girls and women to do same. She added”.
The group also expressed disappointment in the second lady and her husband for what they term as failing to uphold the principles of Islam, even though this was what informed the decision of the Islam constituency to vote for the NPP in 2016.

Under-Fire Akufo-Addo Reduces Ministries To 29
President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has trimmed down the number of ministries in his second administration from 36 to 29.
Consequently, the number of ministers, deputy ministers and regional ministers to be appointed will not exceed 85.
The list of qualified Ghanaians who will serve as ministers and deputy ministers in President Akufo-Addo’s second term will be released this week as soon as Parliament constitutes its Appointments Committee.
The Director of Communications at the Presidency, Mr Eugene Arhin, told Graphic Online in Accra Tuesday [Jan 19, 2021] that the list, which would be printed on green sheets in the form of a statement, would contain a mixture of both old and new ministers, but the number would certainly not go beyond 85, as against the 126 in the first term.
