<p>According to the report, its a major cause of endemic poverty, poor education outcomes, school dropout rates, a high rate of out-of-school children, and poor access to basic social, economic and healthcare services in the country.</p>
<p>According to Purity Oriaifo, Save the Children International Nigeria’s Girl Champion said cultural, traditional and social practices encourage gender-discriminatory norms against girls and women.</p>
<p>Oriaifo therefore calls for the provision and the full implementation of policies and strategies to end the problem in Nigeria.</p>
