Nigeria's underdevelopment regarding the status of their women, due to a long history of colonial exploitation and oppression, has brought about a distortion of Nigeria's economic, educational, religious, cultural, social, ideological and social orientations. The social role of women in Nigeria varies according to religious, cultural and geographic factors. However, many Nigerian cultures see women solely as mothers, sisters, daughters and wives. For instance, women in Northern Nigeria are more likely to be secluded in the home, than women in Southern Nigeria, who tend to participate more in public life. Modern challenges for the women of Nigeria include child marriage, female genital mutilation, rape, and domestic violence
