Lets be sincere with ourselves here, this woman just wants to use her predicament ( which can clearly be resolved In Nigeria ) to live abroad

Its people like this that give Nigeria a bad image ( in this case making the outside world believe that female circumcision is highly practiced in Nigeria )

But then, would you blame her !!!!

While Fgm is indeed a form of gender based violence which is prominent in the African culture, the dynamic nature of culture and movement against it has ensured that it is no longer a problem in Nigeria. In the main, it is now done only by women who are steeped in their ways and take their female children to do it as of course as well as traditional health workers who do not want to let go of the practice as it is a means of income generation.

If this claim was not bogus the woman should have mentioned the community and the father in law's name. Heck we even have several laws against it , the latest of which I think is the Violence against Persons Prohibition Act of 2015. Madam just used that story to seek asylum and get the canadian govt to take car of her triplets grin

Sometimes, white govts can be so gullible grin grin SMH

FGM is a terrible act. this woman tho... being a Nigerian, i can't bet her story is true. There are so many safe cities, towns and villages she cld have sought refuge without her fictional father-inlaw knowing but she has enough money to fly to canada??

Culture is not static. It lives & evolves.

East or West, many ancient cultures have been dropped. Like burning witches on a stake in Europe.

Many parts of Africa have abandoned FGM. Most proponents of many old ways are dying out.

However, certain aspects of our culture are very much worth preserving. With some tweaks here & there.

Generalisation does not help.
like genital mutilation ,pedophililia and checking little girls virginity by putting your fingrs into her vagina? undecided

Ok o.ride on with your culture

A grown woman gave birth to a daughter.. First of all,

IS FGM LEGAL IN NIGERIA

why run away? How will your father in law subject your daughter to torture? And you are scared of him so you ran to a foreign land to claim "Refugee Status". What happened to the Police? You cannot Sue the father in law? Na by force? This is 2016 not 1858. There is a rule of law. He can sue and CAN BE SUED!

That father in law should be arrested and charged to court for molestation and child abuse.

Yes just like the way Buhari is respecting the court

Re: Woman Flees Nigeria To Canada To Escape FGM by Nobody: 11:30pm On Jan 13, 2016
First FGM is no longer legal in Nigeria, if she can file for refugee status in Canada, am sure she could have read about FGM ban in Nigeria and sought protection for her daughter under the Law (if she's really that concerned about her daughter). Secondly, Canada too far na, Winnipeg for that matter, all the money she spent would have relocated her and her daughters down to Lagos successfully. Madam is a liar! She's willing to soil our image just so she and her family could relocate to Canada, what a selfish baitch.

How do you guys know she's lying?
It may be illegal in Nigeria but the woman may be powerless to stop her in-laws from carrying out the practice on her daughters if they insist on it.
So instead of saying it's illegal and leaving it at that, let's join in sensitization about the issue so that those who still believe in it will have a rethink.

So this barbaric practice still thrives in this age and time in this country?
I don't trust Nigerians sha. They can do and say anything just to help them secure a visa to the country of their choice.
My roomie back in school told me of a Nigerian woman in the UK who was about to be repartriated. She did not want any of that so she contracted him(through a friend my roomie knows) to design a website with the woman's name and picture, declaring her wanted back in her village in the South East for a certain crime she committed against the gods of the land. The website was used in court by her lawyer to plead her case and that was how the repartriation matter died.
I just hope this is not one of such spurious claims...tarnishing our country's image just to secure assylum!

lord have mercy, but she cant try that in some parts of the south south.

It's really sad that some cultures still practice such barbaric custom in this 21st century. It's hard being a female, to now compound it with mutilation of the genitals all in d name of circumcision is really horrific. May God help us!!!

I don’t know why white people are so foolish to the core.

So she ignored all other cities in her own country and other countries in Africa only to land in Canada on asylum claims?

Foolish white governments only end up admitting all sorts of potential troubles for their citizens to deal with in future.

Same way a Yoruba Nigerian who was set to be deported from the UK laid claim to requiring asylum because of boko haram. One would begin to wonder if it's not the same Nigeria that we are all resident in.
Are people not living in Southern Nigeria? Are UK nationals not working and residing in Nigeria?

No wonder fraudsters deliberately seek out white victims. Lots of money in their possession, with an ample display of foolishness.

As for me,I'm happy for her. I don't understand where you're coming from.

You wouldn't know unless someone tells you even if the person is from your own village. You wouldn't know what claims she is making.
In the case I talked about, it was just my friend who designed the website, the middleman and the woman in question that knew what was going on. She just paid my guy for the , settled the middleman...and that was the end of the matter!

Relax, this story was posted to fool those "white People" in Canada, in other to assist her to get Refugee Status over there!

If it is as bad as this, there will be no single woman/girl left in Nigeria as of today!

Even Dele Momodu that was claiming they wanted to kill him if he steps into Nigeria, so he can get Refugee status in Britain, is back here fighting davido and his baby Momma, at the airport! grin grin wink

Oyinbo don fall Maga! FGM is banned in Nigeria, by LAW!

Female Genital Mutilation - the partial or total removal of the clitoris or other injury to the female genital organs for non-medical reasons.

The clitoris being a very active stimulant for sexual interests in women is cut off in the bid that it will prevent them from promiscuity. She gets married and is never interested in sex because her module has been tampered with. In an attempt to encourage hubby's efforts she moans fake sounds of pleasure and can't wait for him to roll off..... lol @ roll off

Oh! Africa. So the men are left with the birth right of enjoying sex.
