A US-based Nigerian lady, Folake Adebola narrates on Twitter how she was sent home from work for wearing hijab.
She wrote that she converted to Islam in August and decided to start wearing the Hijab. However, she was kicked out of work when she decided to start wearing it.
She wrote on Twitter;
“I converted to Islam not too long ago and I started wearing my hijab, I went to work today and was kicked out because my hijab was not apart the “ dress code” apparently and I wasn’t allowed to wear it. Don’t come to the chicken express in Fort Worth!!

She also explained that she was already working there without her hijab but she told the manager that she is a Muslim and would start wearing it.
“Lemme say this I converted in AUGUST I didn’t start working there till OCTOBER in the hand book they say they have “equal opportunity for every religion “ so yes I FELT comfortable working there. I told my manager that I am Muslim and that I was waiting on my hijabs to come in,” Folake tweeted.
