Dis week, di Kingdom of Saudi Arabia don for di first time, open application for women wey go allow dem join di military.
Dis na just one of di u-turn wey government don begin do since last year, wey dey give Saudi women freedom wey dem never enjoy before.
As things dey for ground, Saudi Arabia Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman don promise say na moderate Islam im country go dey do from now, make di country good for people wey wan do business dia.

- Foreign women wey dey live for Saudi Arabia no dey by-force need to wear veil
But e never finish for dia, e still get plenty things Saudi women still no fit do. Some of dem na:
Try new cloth for boutique
Saudi Arabia na sweet place to buy things because big supermarkets dem full ground and clothes no too cost.
But e dey normal for boutiques make changing room no dey, because na only men dem dey do salesmen.
Di idea say woman dey inside changing-room, dey remove one cloth, dey try another one dey give Saudi men dem headache.
End of Di one wey oda users dey read well well
So big supermarkets dem dey put changing room near bathroom wey go far from di shop, and customers no too like am.
To open bank account
As things dey, more and more women dey work and start dia own business, but simple things like to open bank account dey get palava.
Na when man like her papa, brother or husband give Saudi woman permission, na im she fit open account.
Dis one mean say, woman no fit move money anyhow for her own bank account and e no dey totori dem.
Keep children, when marriage scatter
If man and woman divorce, woman no fit just waka comot with di pickin, by law.
She must wait till di boys reach seven years, and girls reach nine years, before law go allow her carry dem go.
To dress as dem like
E dey illegal make woman dress for sake of say she wan fine for Saudi Arabia.
Wetin dey allowed na simple style and make-up.
If woman wan waka comot her domot, she must wear abaya, wey be long cloth wey go reach her toe.
"Dressing for beauty" dey illegal; na modest clothing and make-up dem dey encourage.
To enter water go swim, for public swimming pool
Women no dey swim for di same pool wey men dey use.
But dem fit swim for only di ones wey dey private, or for women-only.
