Brigitte Gabriel(@ACTBrigitte):This is being celebrated as a breakthrough for women. Nigeria’s first niqab-wearing lawyer. A highly educated woman has achieved a professional milestone only to submit to a religious requirement that erases her identity in the courtroom and in public life. She still feels the need to re-introduce herself from behind the niqab. Education without visibility is not empowerment.
