World: Female Circumcision is Banned in Ugandan Community; See pics: NBA Heads to Europe
October 16th, 2008Female circumcision is banned in Ugandan community. Female circumcision (also referred to as female genital mutilation, FGM) has been banned in a Ugandan community, reports the BBC. The practice, which entails cutting of a girl’s clitoris, is “outmoded” and “not useful” for women in the community, said Kapchorwa district chairman Nelson Chelimo. “The community decided that it was not useful, that women were not getting anything out of it, so the district council decided to establish an ordinance banning it,” he continued. He also said that the council had also sent legislation to Uganda’s parliament to make the ban nationwide. Some believe that women who get married without being circumcised would fall ill, Chelimo said. Where FGM is practiced, many see it as a way to make sure a woman stays a virgin until she is married. According to the U.N. three million African girls are at risk of FGM. But the agency has called for the practice to be drastically reduced by 2015, arguing it causes bleeding, infections and increases the likelihood of infant mortality. The only group that practices FGM in Uganda are the Sabiny people.
