STOP LYING ABOUT FGM IN AFRICA TO MAKE YOU LOOK GOOD PATHETIC LIARS!!! YOU DISGUST ME FOR LYING AT AN EXPENCE OF PAIN AND SUFFERING OF MY PEOPLE,YOU TOOK EVERYTHING GOOD FROM US NOW YOU ARE LYING ABOUT OUR PAIN?

Female Genital Mutilation ( FGM) in East Africa is more severe than ever!! As now they are doing it at night and crossing the borders to mutilate young girls, we even saw in December a whole armed villagers stormed a police station in Kenya we also saw hundreds of girls were mutilated overnight!! And recent documentary with real people and real torture aired in Kenya and I shared on our blog 3 million are at risk of being mutilated yearly and at-least 2 million are mutilated so sad, 80% of girls in Kenya live in fear:;(. And now some organization is claiming Kenya tops in abandoning FGM? Pathetic liars !! Whose side are you on? The girls living with fistula and legs tied for 45 days or the good for nothing reputation of yours at the expense of humiliated females?! I tell you please go ahead and lie about other parts of Africa or the world but don't dare lie about East Africa especially my homeland Kenya!! Because I will embarrass you every time you lie to the world !! Girls are in pain daily and women dying daily and you have no idea except mocking our pain!! I have watched you parasites make billions in the name of" helping Africa", war in Dafur, genocide in Rwanda, Hunger in the horns of Africa, war and rape crisis in Congo, ethnic cleansing in Kenya, Albino killing in Tanzania, War in Somalia and eritrea , but bloody suckers I will not let you make a cent on FGM it is just too personal!!! Yes I know we black people hurt each other kill each other it's stupid I know !!! But who do you think you are taking advantage of the voiceless, hopeless and defenseless?. I am a voice for the voiceless and cannot be bought I made a vow and I honor my vows!!!

A MOTHER BELIEVED MUTILATING HER 1 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WOULD HELP CURE STOMACH INFECTION!!!:(((.

Me and my daughter.
TANZANIA EAST AFRICA-A one- year child (name withheld) in Hai district, Kilimanjaro region is undergoing specialised medical treatment at the Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Centre (KCMC) due to over bleeding caused by mutilation atrocity.
The girl was mutilated secretly in Ormolili village in the district recently,

It was discovered that the child was mutilated by her own mother. The child’s grandmother, identified as Rehema and the mother are being held by police.
The child's mother, Magdalena Julius (19), said her child was suffering from stomach infections, as a result she couldn’t learn how to walk even after attaining the age of 12 twelve months.
She said some neighbours advised her to take the baby to a traditional healer. “I sent my child to her grandmother, who claimed in order for the child to be healed, she must undergo mutilation,” she said.
However, the grandmother of the child, Rehema Taraa, said she didn’t know anything about the alleged mutilation. “Soon after my daughter in law came back, I saw my grandchild so weary and stained. I decided to take her to Hai District Hospital, and then she was referred to Mawenzi Hospital,” she said.
one of the foot soldier said-" we have a great challenge because nowadays mutilation is done secretly while babies are just months old."
Kilimanjaro regional police commander Absalom Mwakyoma confirmed occurrence of the incident, saying police were still investigating the matter.I wonder how long the investigation will take while the baby girl fights for her life, just because she was born a FEMALE:(((.

HEROIC 368 GIRLS RISK IT ALL TO SAVE ONE OF THEIR OWN WHO WAS MUTILATED AND THEN MARRIED OFF, TAKE A LOOK SEE THE HEROIC LEADER AND THE EMBARRASED MOTHER!!

More than 368 girls of a primary school in Narok South district yesterday stormed their colleague’s home after they learnt that she had been married off to a middle-aged man. The pupils of Aitong primary school, led by their headgirl Gladys Sairowua, forced the mother of the 14-year-old standard seven pupil to put on her daughter's school uniform and go to class.

The pupils were protesting the decision by the mother to marry off Sermetei Kipeen. The pupil's father was allegedly not aware or involved in the marriage negotiations. “We were very angry when we heard that our colleague has been married off. That is why we went for her mother. We wanted her to remain in school until she realises that she has to let her daughter continue with her education,” Sairowua said.

Sairowua said she and her fellow pupils decided to take the action to set example toother parents in the area who do not take the girl child education seriously. “She was a bright pupil and forcing her for early marriageis going to render her education useless,” she said. The headteacher John Sengeny said Sermetei disappeared from school last Tuesday for unknown reasons. He said when they followed up the matter at her home, they realised that marriage negotiations had already started and the girl had been taken into hiding across the border to Tanzania.

He said the girls had, together with education stakeholders, resolved to keep monitoring each other until they all complete primary school. "They have resolved to apply the same method to protect any girl who drops out of school due to early marriage or FGM," said Sengeny. The area education officer Ambolwa Obiri said there was a growing trend in the area where women organised for their daughters' early marriages without involving their husbands. “They organise for their daughters to become pregnant with the man oftheir choice that eventually leads to marriage,” said Obiri. Obiri said many people willing to sponsor the girls in school had been put off by the high dropout rate.
