  1. What she said is true. It’s really very hard to effect a change in the high bride price so quickly. However, the effects should arouse us to its negative influences/effects in our community as a whole, such as ;
    1. Early marriage
    2. GBV
    3. Cattle rustling
    4. Forced marriages
    5. Marginalization of women, where they cannot easily divorce incase the partner is very hostile to them or own property
    6. Increased rate of girls dropping out of schools than boys.
