According to her, the adoption of Western culture by Hausa women has affected their ways of life, urging them to remember the implications of their actions.

Ms Sani-Daura pointed out that much of Hausa culture would disappear if the habit continued.

She said though women had contributed a lot to the development of the Hausa society, they had also abandoned a lot of their earliest culture.
