It is part of Islam, and a way to sanctify man.

Naija girls should be able to tell us how it feels. I’m sure they must have passed thru that Genetal well well..

Atheistan:

I am wondering also. I think say them no dey circumcise

I wonder how these people get their figures. Many people were not born in the hospital in Nigeria. Meanwhile, how many percent of the total population of Nigerian men do the hospitals have their records to be able to know the circumcision status? Most of these figures were cooked, abeg.

Surprised to see Muslims countries high on this list.

Who told you that ? Stop allowing your hatred and ignorance to control you.

It is the opposite. Stop allowing your hatred and ignorance to control you.

So the circumsize are the people acting BF bcs i hardly see the uncirumsized.

In Nigeria, which religious group circumcises the most?

what shows hatred in my post?

IsraeliAIRFORCE:

I don't know neither do I care what others are doing in their own religion.

What I know is that circumcisions is part of Islam

So many ignorant misconceptions that you have held about the muslims that you are told by your evil or ignorant pastors just for the sake of religious division are not true. Re educate yourself for a better society and be more tolerant

1Alex:

It is cleaner and far less subject to infection and diseases

Hospital or no hospital, circumcision is part of our culture. even before hospitals starts doing it, we have local people doing it. I can say it, 99.9% of Nigerian men did circumcision.

This your question is why moniepoint cannot fill over 500 vacancies because if school pass through you rather than you just pass through school so as to be called graduate then you will know research methodologies, after all you did final project or you actually just copied another persons project who had also copied another person's project too

These kinds of research like any other rely on sample size so what that means is out of every 10 Nigerian male 9 are circumcised so depending on how many 10 sets of males that were sampled that will establish the correctness of the result. Mbok

USA not on this list. That's surprising

Atheistan:

Because it's a made up data. Half Nigeria is Muslim, and the circumcision is near 100% LMAO . They probably used all these online survey companies. And of course non Muslims dominate these platforms due to exposure and literacy. And they know it.

An anti male circumcision propaganda and agenda is about to propate and agend

That's why 3rd world countries were ranked so low.

The effect is, people in so called first world countries would want to be different from the so called barbarians.

They don't like being seen doing what these "dirty third world countries" do. Therefore, coupled with the incoming propaganda, they will willingly start avoiding circumcising their male kids.

Even in the publication, an attempt was made to portray circumcision as bad. Look how the "low" regions were ranked first, and the higher ones last. And then in the graph, low regions tends towards white, while higher regions tends towards dark red.

And your anobi was not circumcised

It isnt even compulsory for Christian males to get circumcized ( Read Galatians 5;2).

Projecting your assumption on Muslims again or that there is an evidence for this?

Antiislaam:
And your anobi was not circumcised

must you project your hatred on others and their pastors?
