"The Kano red area where the prostitutes are male" β Prime People, 1988
"In the Sabon-Gari area of Kano are four streets: Abadie, Freetown, Santgiwa and Weatherhead.
"This is a Kano red area which is different from red areas all over the world in one unique feature. The prostitutes with light make-up, feminine-looking clothes and who effect feminine voices are males.
"They are dan-daodus, who, unlike regular homosexuals, peddle their male flesh, not for fun, but for cash.
"And every evening, these streets are filled with different cars coming to pick a dan-daodu or a girl, depending on the patron's tastes or choice.
"Dan-daodu is an Hausa name for homosexual."
