The theme of the conference was “Religion and Gender Diversity: Exploring the Nexus.”
Fagbolade bemoaned that religion “is being trampled upon with more ignorance about God.”
In its 11-point communique issued after the three-day event, the conference recommended that every home should be a school where the children learn Islamic values that shield them from bad companies and instil righteousness in them.
“The conference concluded that the progress of a nation is dependent upon women who are responsible for proper upbringing of their children in line with the true spirit of Islam,” the communique added.
