There is a terrible bid’ha happening in the north of Nigeria, which can be freely translated as “pornographic and provocative innovation”, in almost “lands of Boko Haram”, and not of Islam, as they (they) insist on saying. Before, “demo lands”, seen from Lusitânia!
The fact: Is it not that the hives of Kwara, North-Central State of Nigeria, are joining like bees, to a community initiative in the city of Ilorin, whose “hive” has the suggestive name Model Queens Football Academy!
Model Warrioras the motto on the respective Facebook page, is in fact about the war, of the so-called Generation Z, which is beginning to show definitive signs that from 2026 onwards, the gaps in patriarchal systems, especially those with Islamic roots, will easily be “crackable”, through mass memberships, live broadcasting and anonymity. Did they have children? Now stop us! The recipe is simple and this is it. So much so that there will be a need, sooner or later, to establish surveillance shifts at telecommunications antennas, the simplest target of the Islamists, in the most remote areas and with the most practical and immediate results possible. This is where the secret and competition lies, for both sides, the immediate. Whoever transmits first wins and where there is no image, there is no news!
As for the girls, they flow into the collective of mutual recognition, path and ambitions. They discover competitiveness, simulate trickery and contaminate themselves with desires, in the beards of their elders, who in panic perceive everything and can do nothing. There are so many, they are all supported by the brothers, who also have corsets!
Football is a popular and transversal opiate, which has proven to have an irrational mobilizing force. See the recent elections in Benfica. The irrational thing is not seeing queues at polling stations, during real elections! The next revolution in the European Union will be to consolidate what has already been tried and naturally rejected by small clubs, the European Club Championship, in the model, first, second and third league, like our old divisions.
In the case under analysis, it is a mobilizing force and catalyst for change, through bid’há, the cursed “innovation” for the elderly. And what seems simple to us, like “playing with the hijab or without it, with leggings or without them”, are precisely the dilemmas that create the debate in the locker room, waking up a 17-year-old mind, to the different approaches on the subject, that nothing is black and white, the importance of decisions, the consequences, persistence, despite the other pointing out it as an error. This girl is leaving this locker room, woman!
