Nigeria's Kano State has recently made an...interesting move. The state has effectively banned the use of mannequins in various stores, boutiques, shopping malls, supermarkets and even private residences. That's right. Those inanimate figures that help you decide whether to purchase that dress or those pants are now illegal in Kano. Interestingly enough, headless mannequins are reportedly exempt from this state-wide ban.
According to the Commander-General of the Kano Hisbah Board, Sheikh Harun Ibn Sina, the use of mannequins contravenes Islamic doctrines and provokes "immoral" thoughts among members of the public while promoting idolatry. In a statement issued to the media, Sina says that, "[Mannequins] violate Islamic provisions, [they] are also responsible for immoral thoughts among some members of the public, all these are against Islam."
PulseNG also reports that the Kano Hisbah Board has already contemplated a strategy for policing the new ban. "We divided Kano into five areas for monitoring and implementation of the ban across the state," Sina declares. Additionally, authorities will conduct impromptu raids and any individual found contravening the ban will be prosecuted. Moreover, the state is also expected to run a "sensitisation" campaign to reinforce this recent ban to the public.
While the ban of mannequins may seem bewildering and even excessive in other parts of Nigeria, the African continent or even the rest of the world, Kano is an Islamic state that is governed under strict Sharia law.

Those Muslims are so righteous, I’m impressed./s/
Still less absurd than what comes out of the current White House on any given day.
That’s crazy. Looks like Nigeria will not be able to fight off Sharia. Not a huge surprise. It seems every year, a big group of their young girls are kidnapped and forcibly converted to Islam. Boko Harem, is the name of that gang, I believe.
I’m not sure even the Bee could have come up with this.
We should ban the use of mannequins in the White House...
What is going on should be questioned on a theological basis and an effort to convert them to accept Christ as their Savior made emphasizing the eternal covenant The very least Francis could be doing is besides raising theological questions on the assertions made in the Islamic codex (which is their code of observance and behavior) known as Sharia, and should be defending the Chinese Catholics.
Ignores this http://www.theusmat.com/islamandfreewill.htm
and also seems to ignore what Our Savior went through to establish the new covenant , Then Plays with suppressors of the faith
Francis continuing destructive confusing pontificating on temporal worldly social behavior,which has nothing to do with and avoids articles of faith and morals rebukes or restrains contemplative religious orders to favor such behavior .
By refusing to question and expound on the profound differences with the claims made by Islam and its followers Reaching out to and defend what Judeo/Christian beliefs are.Or challenge claims that Islamist make they are following God’s command using deceit and deception when ruthlessly murdering and torturing non believers and destroy their edifice .Smply because of its assertion of being monotheistic. Then winds up making a point of honoring it and placing it on an equal level because of that claim. Is leading to misguided conversions which is the result of my so called Pope playing games with this so called mono theistic cult and is creating a serious fracture within Christianity and The Roman Rite .

That was kinda my thought, too.
How about blow up sex dolls? Do you think they would have an issue with a Japanese sex doll?
Just wondering.
I have known Nigerians over the years. They are good people and hard working many of whom are Christian. The Muslim scum need to be eradicated.
Sex dolls still OK?
I had a mail order bride. Let me clarify. I ordered a Muslim fundamentalist sex doll. Mistake on my part. She blew herself up.
What? Did they run short of goats? (Que banjo music)
ba doom shish!
Somewhat on topic, I was working at a department store that was going out of business and they were at the point where they were selling the store fixtures. A couple of teenage boys came in and bought the model for female underwear (it was just the pelvis) I can only imagine what they intended to do with it.
Just bomb them with payloads of mannequins lolz
Who does this guy think he is, the leader of Boko Harum? If so, I hope the reported death of a leader of BK is true. Sharia law is an insult to the Nigerian people who are of many tribes, religions, and political views. They deserve some peace since the horrors of Biafra and now Boko Harum.
