Gambo (33) was able to open a hair salon after starting family planning

Gambo (33) in Kano told the Lafiya Sister in her community: “I’m good at braiding hair and wanted to open a salon. Because I was often pregnant, I couldn’t focus on work.” She states: “My husband advised me against family planning because he was afraid of the high recurring costs of the injections. Thanks to the Lafiya Sisters, I was able to convince him to try it. I finally started my own home salon and already have regular clients. I can take better care of my children without worrying about them not having enough to eat.”
