Traditional human practice. The woman, probably, already wants to travel out of the country. Perhaps, she has money though.

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.


I salute u brother, they will never grow in that aspect, I salute the white but why getting fooled for what we all know its a lie.... KAI

Well, maybe you have nothing worth preserving in your culture, mine certainly has.

We might be all Africans, but we have certain cultures that are different.

I dont understand.

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.
God bless your brain,this is the most ridiculous story ave ever had.

Well, the story fits into their own narrative & perception of Africa.

If someone tells you that a very "ugly" unfriendly lady in the neighborhood is evil, you're more likely to believe it than a fine, young friendly lady. Whereas the opposite might be the case.

We believe things that roughly match our preconceptions.

Its easy to sit and point fingers from your high horse. But in reality, what u suggesting doesnt always work. Dont be surprised she may have gone to police and the police will support her inlaws. Police often reason with their anus not what is in the law books.

She is just lucky to have escaped this wicked practice. This is why when people stress on culture as a basis for laws, I see them as being silly. Not everything in our culture is right!

Jamean:
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.....

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

You seems to understand more about it...

I had a GF back in school that told me she has never enjoyed sex in her life... she forces herself to enjoy sex. I guess this might be the problem...

Ohhh Africa, why are you so backward. Leave our females ladies alone, they have the right to enjoy sex.

It's very unfortunate that Nigerians seeking asylum in Western countries paints this country bad in other to achieve thier aims. I was in Canada in 2014 and I can tell you the stories these guyz cook up so as to get this asylum papers. I DON'T BELIEVE HER.
Re: Woman Flees Nigeria To Canada To Escape FGM by Onegai(f): 7:25am On Jan 14, 2016
FGM is stil practised. I served with a lady who said she would do it to her daughter. Just a few days ago, in Family section someone told us of his MiL who was rubbing Dusting powder (that peppery stuff) into his newborn baby's privates to "prevent her from being promiscuous". Which police will arrest an old woman??

People doing it are just going about it more quietly but it is very much practised.

I dont think you are African or have lived in Africa or even visited Africa. What do u know about the police?? The rate of domestic violence in Africa is alarming. We hear of rape and molestation cases, homicide and so many heinous crimes committed everyday in Africa, but how many convictions being recorded? Next to none. If her claim were true, then she did the best thing in life. Don't come to preach about legal procedure here, cos' by your comment I can easily understand that you have never been through one in your life. Do you think it is easy to sue someone? The case on ground is a case of tradition and rights. As we know deep to the core, Africa is still strongly embedded in its traditional beliefs.
If she were your sister would you have allowed her to go through the torture of a legal battle? Can you sponsor it? Do you have any faith in your judicial system? You will never understand until it comes to you

Hmmm Africans ehhh, must we use every flimsy excuse to sort for Visa from these western countries?
I just pray you don't run back to Naija citing Cannadians are treating you like second class individual now you have secured their VISA.
I see alot in common between this woman and APC... PROPAGANDA.

Why not just go to Canada without making it appear as if Africa is still operating in 18th century...There is no place like after all your runnings

Yes ofcourse, it is being done in all the ukwuani, ndokwa west and ndokwa east local government of delta state. I doubt if there is anybody that will be able to stop it totally. They said is an age long custom.

I will advise that you endeavor to make a research concerning the difference between visa, residency and citizenship. Try, it will help you

I've read people make funny comments about how unbelievable they find this story, how they doubt FGM is still practiced and all that. I was at Jolad Hospital Gbagada late last year and a boy of about 9 years was rushed in as he had been circumcised according to a ritual rite of passage according to his father's culture from this country. The short is that he was evaluated and was told he will never be able to father a child again as the trado method did major damage to his male organ. Please, let's be careful when we judge people. I felt for that boy. Imagine what this woman's daughter has to face in life now because of an age long belief. Kudos to her mum for saving her siblings.
