See your mentality ?
What do You even mean by see your mentality?

The rot We have for a system is as loud as the sound of a bell.

Yes there is rot in almost every Country but I don't see how calling out ours is bad mentality.

Psychologically, acceptance and being intentional is a good step to solving a problem.

We should by now have a good sporting system that should see our intelligent women feature in this news,don't you agree?

This is for boys who watch the game. Nothing concern me. Expect a Nairaland troglodyte to open a thread or two complaining about how women are dragging the art of refereeing to the dumps. Una brains still dey the 2nd century.

AKHONA ZENNITH MAKALIMA (South Africa)
The 35yo is the first certified female soccer referee in South Africa, where she officiates for FIFA, the Premier Soccer League, the SASOL Women’s League, CAF Champions Leagie, Africa Women's Cup of Nations and the South African Football Association (SAFA).
Akhona uses her position as a women’s sports pioneer to encourage and influence young South African women to participate in sports at all levels.

She earned a national diploma in human resource management from King Hintsa FET College.

She is listed as one of the VAR referees at the AFCON 2023.
This one will cause commotion on the pitch

Men are scum yet feminists don’t want to let men be , leave men to handle their thing and let women do the same. I don’t like this sniffing around . I remember 2013 Afcon when Enyeama carried the referee from behind outta excitement imagine If it’s a female referee?

Enyeama would’ve ended up like Rubiales of Spain . European men are too sissy for my liking for allowing women dictate their rhythm Simps are creating a difficult world for the next generation of men.
