Wise words from @GatimuMuchai and perhaps something we all need to consider as we unite to end #FGM by 2030:
"The pursuit of perfection is frustrating & a waste of time. A lot of opportunities will be lost if we wait for things to be perfect. Just start & improve along the way!"

Every 60 seconds, 6 girls are mutilated.
To stop this act requires a joint effort of everyone. It starts with me, you, plus our fathers and brothers are much needed in this because in the end, “FGM is done for the men”. #YouthEndFGM @youthhubafrica @AYCommission @yiyafoundation https://t.co/OnoPT3OCk6
