Al-Marsad Newspaper: The head of the Entertainment Authority, Councilor Turki Al-Sheikh, said that no hijazi-wearing band is allowed to participate in any activities related to the Riyadh season.
And he said, during a tweet he posted on his Twitter account: “This is not the clothing of the people of Hijaz … and the clothing of an intruder to us, and she is not our aunt … the people of Hijaz on the eye and on the head, but this is a distortion of our history”.
These are not the clothes of the Hijaz people, and the clothes of a stranger to us, nor is she our aunt… The Hijaz people are in the eyes and on the head, but this is a distortion of our history, and we will not accept nor will we allow any bands or entertainment activities with the aunt… Even when the Yanbu Al-Ghaliya band came in the Riyadh season, they were dressed. Her uncle is from Shemagh or her aunt is from Hijaz people!! pic.twitter.com/KxP6NZI6WX
