Answer 1

The story highlights one of the traditions of post colonial African society that a woman can be ‘useful’ only if she has normal, strong legs.

Explanation:

In the story, Adjoa’s grandmother believes that a woman’s value lies in her ability to become a mother and perform traditional duties. She worries that Adjoa’s long, thin legs may not help her fulfil these expectations. The story highlights the traditional beliefs and limitations placed on women in post-colonial African society.
