The Centre for Media Advocacy for Mother and Child (CAMAC) has described Female Genital Mutilation (FGM), as abuse on the right of women, inhuman and violence against women and girls.
In a statement issued by the Executive Director of CAMAC, Alex Uangbaoje to commemorate the International Day of Zero Tolerance for Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) recently said we must eliminate such practice.
The statement lamented that despite global campaigns to end the act, several countries, especially in Africa including Nigeria are still practising it.
According to Him, United Nations in 2019 revealed that “at least 200 million girls and women alive today have had their genitals mutilated, suffering one of the most inhuman acts of gender-based violence in the world.”
