 The United Nations Children's Fund would like law enforcers in Nigeria to prosecute persons who carry out female genital mutilation against children. This was the major point at a three-day training for law enforcement agents, judicial officers and government agencies from Oshoong, Iqiti and all your states. UNICEF Child Protection Specialist in Kiru, Madu, HSE believes genital mutilation of girls is one of the worst human rights violations in the world. Let's come together to uphold the rights of our mothers, our sisters, our daughters. When our women and our daughters, our sisters are protected, the whole society will enjoy the benefit. Let's uphold the laws that we have passed. Let's enforce it. When these cases come to you, please treat it with all seriousness as you would a mother case, as you would an amour of riches, because this is one of the worst crimes against a human being, that you, your God-given right to enjoyment or your God-given right to life will be tampered by another human being. It's simply unacceptable and should not be tolerated. FGM programme has been in existence in Nigeria for a couple of years. We have recorded some successes. We have been able to intervene in about 953 or 973 communities or thereabouts where FGM has been publicly denounced and abandoned. We are not resting on our own. We are still pushing to ensure that FGM is a thing of the past in these communities and in all the states where we are intervening. And until every child and no child is caught, we will not stop in our efforts on the elimination.
