Debate Over Unconventional Hair: Zamfara Committee Responds with New Rules

In an effort to address concerns related to public decorum and the influence of questionable hair styling, the Zamfara State Hisbah Committee, operating under the directive of Ta Soma This Project, has initiated actions to identify and address instances of unconventional hairstyles.

The primary aim of these efforts is to discourage activities perceived as contravening societal norms and to promote a culture of modesty and conformity in the state of Zamfara. The committee has embarked on a mission to identify individuals who adopt unconventional or non-conforming hairstyles, often referred to as “bad haircuts.”

It is crucial to note that this initiative, led by the Hisbah Committee, seeks to foster a sense of adherence to cultural and social norms within Zamfara State and does not imply any punitive measures against individuals but rather aims at promoting traditional and acceptable grooming practices. The endeavor is part of a broader campaign to maintain decorum in the society and to encourage conformity with established customs and traditions.
