Although
many scholars have written on the effect of family planning practices
in Nigeria, it is significant to notes however that family planning can
prevent unwanted pregnancies and unsafe abortions and family planning
does not mean abortion. Therefore this study is basically for rural
women. Hence the study hopefully is significant to the extent that the
above specify persons should be able; to know what family planning is
all about, to understand the important, benefits of family planning
practices, to know some factors that could affect the practice of family
planning, such as religion and cultural belief and also to understand
that some family planning methods such as condom usage can protect
individuals from Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) including
HIV/AIDS at the end of the study.
Health workers may also find this

need their assistance of family planning. Policy makers will not be left
out in terms of the significance of this study as they may be able to
design policies that could lead to an effective family planning method.
