A call for parliamentarians in The #Gambia to remember who gets harmed, and to do right by the girls and women of the country.

Female Genital Mutilation is harmful ❌

All forms of FGM are harmful!

I support all calling for The #Gambia to maintain current legal protections for women & girls against the harmful practice.

What’s currently happening in The #Gambia is beyond FGM. It is about all protections required for women and girls to thrive.

Thank you Ma’am for adding your voice to our concerns for women and girls rights in The #Gambia .

As we continue to say and as reiterated by the the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Right to Health Dr Tlaleng Mofokeng 👇🏾

“FGM is a grave violation of human rights including the rights to health, bodily integrity, and freedom from torture and discrimination.”

#ProtectGirls

At the #CSW68 the Minister of Gender Hn. Fatou Kinteh in her statement said 'women cannot be empowered if their rights continued to be violated'.
But our question and worry is, repealing the anti FGM law isn’t it violating the rights of women and girls?
