May 1st, 2015 – Congo Brazzaville Banned Muslims From Wearing Islamic Veil, Hijab, Burka, Niqab In Public Places
Effective immediately, the republic of Congo has banned the use of Hijab, full face Islamic veil in public places.
The government says the measures are designed to help tackle extremism.
Muslims from other countries have been banned from spending night in mosques after the country witnessed a huge influx of migrants from Central African Republic who are now taking shelter in mosques across the country.

Btavo Congo! Indeed masks should not be allowed to be worn in public with the exception of carnivals. Interestingly the new 1st lady of Afghanistan, Rula Ghani, publicly supports France’s Burqa-Ban. The barbaric practice of making women faceless and voiceless and powerless has been the cornerstone of oppression of women and denial of education to women, by Fundamentalist Extremists in too many countries. I am glad the world is waking up to this oppression.
Please visit my website to see my personal artwork for the banning of the burqa and in favour of education for girls. *******
