In this episode we will talk about our journey through life, It’s ups and downs, that is, the challenges we face and how at every point we find our way to the top and then the things we need to do to get to the top, how we can encourage ourselves to get to the top. The likely questions we ask ourselves during our down times and when it feels like there’s no hope and how God has also come through and showed up for us. It is also important to share testimonies about the things that has happened to us because it encourages people to carry on.

About F.G.M

Female genital mutilation (FGM) is defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) as all procedures which involve partial or total removal of the external female genitalia and/or injury to the female genital organs, whether for cultural or any other non-therapeutic reasons. In Nigeria, subjection of girls and women to obscure traditional practices is legendary. FGM is an unhealthy traditional practice inflicted on girls and women worldwide. FGM is widely recognized as a violation of human rights, which is deeply rooted in cultural beliefs and perceptions over decades and generations with no easy task for change.

Due to Nigeria’s large population, it has the highest absolute number of female genital mutilation (FGM) worldwide, accounting for about one-quarter of the estimated 115–130 million circumcised women in the world. Peter Hawkins, UNICEF Representative in Nigeria asserts that “Millions of girls are being robbed of their childhoods, health, education, and aspirations every day by harmful practices such as FGM,”.

“The practice of FGM not only has no health benefits – it is deeply harmful to girls and women, both physically and psychologically. It is a practice that has no place in our society today and must be ended, as many Nigerian communities have already pledged to do,” said Hawkins.
