*FIDA Nigeria Press Statement on the International Day of Zero Tolerance for Female Genital Mutilation*
Theme: Stepping up the Pace: Strengthening Alliances and Building Movements to End FGM.
Nigeria ranks among the countries with the highest prevalence of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM). According to the United Nations, Nigeria is third globally in FGM cases, with nearly 19.9 million survivors. FGM is not only a harmful traditional practice but also a gross violation of human rights, causing profound physical, psychological, and social harm.
This cruel practice must be eradicated in all its forms. The time to act is NOW. Not another girl. Not another cut. Not another stolen future.
