Samia Suluhu Hassan under fire for suggesting that women footballers would not be attractive candidates for marriage.
Tanzania’s President Samia Suluhu Hassan has come under fire for remarks about women footballers having “flat chests” and suggesting they would not be attractive candidates for marriage. Hassan made the comments at a ceremony on Sunday to celebrate the victory of a national men’s team in a regional football championship, where ironically she also called for better funding for women’s sports. “For those who have flat chests, you might think they are men and not women,” she said at Sunday’s event.More Related News
