The management of the Kano State University of Science and Technology has set aside May 27 to celebrate the Arabian outfit popularly known as ‘Abaya’ annually after a female student was harassed and mocked by her male colleagues.
In a show of solidarity, many northern women including Zahra Buhari and her sisters-in-law on Thursday, posted photos of themselves wearing the free flowing outfit.
“Say no to harassment. #kustwudiabayaday #kustwudistopbullyinginyouruniversity” Zahra, Adama, Hauwa, Meram Indimi captioned the photos. https://googleads.g.doubleclick.net/pagead/ads?client=ca-pub-2427099653703778&output=html&h=300&adk=2141876619&adf=667904977&pi=t.aa~a.1834861711~i.19~rp.4&w=360&lmt=1622209874&num_ads=1&rafmt=1&armr=3&sem=mc&pwprc=4779063894&psa=1&ad_type=text_image&format=360×300&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lindaikejisblog.com%2F2021%2F5%2Fzahra-buhari-indimi-and-her-sisters-in-law-wear-abaya-in-solidarity-with-kano-varsity-student-harassed-by-male-colleagues.html&flash=0&fwr=1&pra=3&rh=275&rw=330&rpe=1&resp_fmts=3&sfro=1&wgl=1&fa=27&adsid=ChEI8KnChQYQ3PXwhNXb3MuUARIvAMQzoNViqzffa22uJ38FpkLiDS-MyznSJxchtoQLb0Z9wQEHuTXM_VseaK714EM&dt=1622209874593&bpp=25&bdt=10382&idt=-M&shv=r20210524&cbv=%2Fr20190131&ptt=9&saldr=aa&abxe=1&cookie=ID%3D40b8097dd0e7c216-2253f13045c800be%3AT%3D1621431236%3ART%3D1621431236%3AS%3DALNI_MaTUeOfHD9dt6iZSzMqqRDzzOcAzA&prev_fmts=360×300%2C0x0%2C360x300&nras=2&correlator=8286470453467&frm=20&pv=1&ga_vid=1395618283.1619456010&ga_sid=1622209868&ga_hid=1771997718&ga_fc=0&u_tz=60&u_his=2&u_java=0&u_h=800&u_w=360&u_ah=800&u_aw=360&u_cd=24&u_nplug=0&u_nmime=0&adx=0&ady=2433&biw=360&bih=664&scr_x=0&scr_y=217&eid=31060945%2C31060474%2C31060839&oid=3&pvsid=3697897857705897&pem=231&ref=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lindaikejisblog.com%2F&eae=0&fc=384&brdim=0%2C0%2C0%2C0%2C360%2C0%2C360%2C664%2C360%2C664&vis=1&rsz=%7C%7Cs%7C&abl=NS&fu=128&bc=31&jar=2021-05-28-10&ifi=4&uci=a!4&btvi=2&fsb=1&xpc=314wv1FNbZ&p=https%3A//www.lindaikejisblog.com&dtd=216
