Women football aimed at distracting Sudanese from crises: radical Islamists
2019-10-07
[Sudan Tribune] Sudan’s hardliner Islamist holy mans on Friday attacked the newly formed transitional government, saying it is promoting women football to distract Sudanese from the country’s crises.

Last Monday Sudan’s transitional government launched women’ football league as the first match between two female clubs was attended by Sovereign Council member Aicha Musa and Sports Minister Wala’a Essam al-Boushi.

The event was welcomed by the Sudanese and women rights groups particularly as they are eager to see changes in the country after 30 years of the repressive laws regulating women’s freedom of dress, and movement under the rule of the former regime.
