#FrontlineEndingFGM #Quote of the Day ☀️

"I was obliged to know the effects of FGM through the show, on how the female circumcision practices expose the girls to serious health complications, I urge the presenters to carry out the show more frequently." Caroline Saitoti https://t.co/1IvyzELQLt via @gmcendfgm

"I was so impressed by the activity and as a church leader, I will call upon other church leaders to organize frequent youth forums and seminars during the school holidays and weekends." Pastor Ezekiel Sankale who was a listener https://t.co/1IvyzELQLt via @gmcendfgm

#FrontlineEndingFGM #QuoteOfTheDay ☀️

in case you were wondering What We DO

@CDomtila @EverlynePrech @Zinduka_eV @TunawezaEmpower @MULATYAH @HealthwiseF @AqueenathaAdhia . @AqueenathaAdhia reported cross-county cutting as girls from Kilgoris were ferried to Kisii for medicalised FGM. The woman who organises this is still at large with little effort to arrest her noted.

@CDomtila @EverlynePrech @Zinduka_eV @TunawezaEmpower @MULATYAH @HealthwiseF @AqueenathaAdhia #FrontlineEndingFGM campaigner, Abdirahman, created conversations in villages with administrators/ local chiefs and community monitors at Rhamu, Mandera county, speaking about FGM. Chiefs acknowledged that it was happening but little has been done to stop it.

@CDomtila @EverlynePrech @Zinduka_eV @TunawezaEmpower @MULATYAH @HealthwiseF @AqueenathaAdhia Vincent Mwita reported the arrest of 3 adults, all parents, that had subjected their daughters to #FGM. He then organised a radio talkshow at Togotane Radio asking his community not to cut their children. #FrontlineEndingFGM

@CDomtila @EverlynePrech @Zinduka_eV @TunawezaEmpower @MULATYAH @HealthwiseF Alarming reports came in a week to Christmas . @AqueenathaAdhia reported that 2 #FGMMedicalisation nurses missed a court hearing. Her efforts then were backed by the county commissioner, Kisii. Campaigners began asking the government to intervene! #FrontlineEndingFGM

@CDomtila @EverlynePrech @Zinduka_eV @TunawezaEmpower . @MULATYAH of @HealthwiseF reported plans for a forced marriage* of a 13-year-old girl in Magadi, Kajiado, who was cut at 8 years and had just completed her class 8 exams... requesting links to a rescue center. #FrontlineEndingFGM An area chief took her in!

@CDomtila @EverlynePrech @Zinduka_eV @TunawezaEmpower Nasteshe Aftin of Dayaa Women Group was on the #frontlineendingFGM in Tana river, meeting the people of Gafuru and all was calm as they promised not to cut their daughters. @CDomtila then gave an update on a girl's #FGM recovery after excessive bleeding due to #FGM.

@CDomtila @EverlynePrech #FGM Reports began streaming in from Kuria as @Zinduka_eV, with the help of the police, rescued 15 young girls in Ntimaru, Migori County. Elders from the Nyabasi clan had earlier declared not to cut as shared by #FrontlineEndigFGM @TunawezaEmpower.

.@CDomtila, @EverlynePrech, and Ambrose Merian relentlessly monitored, reported, and followed up on reported cases as girls were cut in numbers on the highlands and plains of West Pokot.
#FrontlineEndingFGM

It has been a busy holiday season as #FrontlinendingFGM campaigners worked non-stop to prevent and stop FGM at their grassroots. We are sharing their stories as they lead the campaign to #EndFGM

“Do you have a list of the names of the girls’ your charity has saved from FGM?”
This was a question that (initially) stumped us.
We came up with a holistic response ...

Critical times call for urgent action... the major solutions we need even in kuria is law enforcement, period! Sensitization will resume next year. @Vincent_Mwit #FrontlineEndingFGM

We have extremely good policies . Let's implement them. If even those parents of this girls are arrested and given stiff punishment others will shy away. Problem is we are imagining they are ignorant and they ride on it. They know!!! Kelly Karimi -

They must face the real low. Law enforcement Officers and other Government Agency must carry the burden. They know what the law says and they have been participating in Anti-FGM campaigns. -Ambrose Merian #FrontlineEndingFGM

As long as there’s nowhere to run to, the girl child is at risk of the cut. As a journalist I commit to do my best…and challenge all stakeholders to pick up their tools and use them to fight this harmful culture ~Pamela Omwodo #FrontlineEndingFGM

I don't think there's any community in this country that doesn't know that #fgm is outlawed..... If there is any, then the champions in those area have to change strategy. Solomon Mtunasi #FrontlineEndingFGM CC. @AFGMBoard

Let those people face the law. They can't attend trainings and still watch the act happening with no action... Viola Jeruto - #FrontlineEndingFGM

West Pokot, Kenya: What is happening ni Kanyerus/Nakuyen and Chepkokogh is disturbing and we can't keep watching it happen. As much as cònducting senitization/dialoques, engagement also law must take its course -Ambrose Merian #FrontlineEndingFGM

Our surveillance groups are so frustrated it has sent everyone to a fear mode of FGM finding its way back. I'm afraid by the end of this week hundreds of girls will have been cut!! @CDomtila #FrontlineEndingFGM

West Pokot, Kenya - I have received another phone call to confirm that in the same location I had reported earlier the ceremony was conducted openly with singing and dancing at night on Saturday night. @CDomtila #FrontlineEndingFGM
