                 FGM Remains Rampant in Some Kenyan Communities

   by Mohammed Yusuf

   Each February, the U.N. holds the International Day of Zero Tolerance
   for Female Genital Mutilation [FGM]. The practice is believed to affect
   more than 140 million girls and women globally. The U.N. has pledged
   since 2012 to eliminate FGM, and billions of dollars have been spent
   creating awareness of the dangers it creates. But in a remote rural
   district in southwest Kenya, the practice is deeply rooted, and the
   community doesn't shy away from what it is doing. For VOA, Mohammed
   Yusuf reports.
