🚫 STOP Female Circumcision. It’s Not Culture—It is a CRIME. 🚨
Dear Nigerians, let’s be clear: Under Nigerian Law, female circumcision is ILLEGAL.
Yes, you heard right.
👉 It is a crime to circumcise a girl child.
👉 It is a crime to encourage it.
👉 It is a crime to help someone do it.
You can go to prison, face a hefty fine, or both.
The law is called the Violence Against Persons (Prohibition) Act. Read it. Know it. Share it.
Culture is no excuse for cruelty. Protect our girls. Break the silence.
Let’s END female genital mutilation in this generation. 💔✂️🚫
