Female Genital mutilation has not been found to contribute in any positive way to health but threatens it. In spite of the complications associated with the practice some people still hold fast to it. It is obvious that this is a factor responsible for the perpetuation of this harmful practice in our society.

There should be a clear-cut policy statement by the Federal Government to abolish female genital mutilation.
The media should be more involved in enlightening the public on the harmful effect of genital mutilation.
