They also embark on livestock keeping as part of their economic livelihood. The Ghana cedi is their main medium of payment. Cowries and barter practice are also some medium of exchange acceptable by these people.

The Saandayiri people are predominately Muslims and as such their practices are in consonance with Islamic prescriptions. However, traditional considerations are given to selected aspects of their being, such as marriage, funeral rites and ancestral sacrifices. Most customary performances like funerals or festivals are characterised by drumming and dancing. Muslim festivals such as the Idil Fitr and Idil Adhar are adopted in addition to traditional ones.

Campione d'Italia is an Italian town and commune of Lombardy, occupying an enclave within the Swiss canton of Ticino, separated from the rest of Italy by Lake Lugano and mountains. Its status came about when Ticino chose to become part of the Swiss Confederation in 1798, and Campione's people chose to remain part of Lombardy, which subsequently became part of Italy in 1859. The d'Italia was added to the appellation under Prime Minister Benito Mussolini, who was keen to showcase Campione to its neighbours.
