MOVE AGAINSTS TRANSGRESSION ON
WOMANHOOD
The sixth of February is the date as being declared to be the
International Day of the sexual skin cutting among the women in most parts of
the countries in the world. Unicef has
brought in the stunning account of this
as 20 crores of girls including
women are subjected to this practice of transgression against womanhood. Out of
this 4.4 crores of girls are those who are below the age of 4 years.
Unicef has dealt with this matter in connection with the
international day aiming to move against sexual skin cutting in Somalia ,Guinia
, Jibutty and so on are in large numbers. A lot of girls before the age of five are subjected to
sexual skin cutting. It has been declared by the Unicef that it is a gruesome
violation of childrens’ rights.
It was last year in
November that this act against women was prohibited in Gambia. Gambian
president Yahya Jameh has confessed that 70 %
of Gambian women were become prey for this. It is in Nigeria that the majority of women are brought to be prey
for this cruelty. More than one and
half a crores of women in Nigeria
are suffering from this disaster. But in November last year it was banned there by law. The United Nations
Organisation aims at bringing an end to
this barbarian act of making women the prey of this superstitious improper
practice within the Year 2030 .
All the Nations allied with the United Nations’ had recognized this policy and programme of this transgression against womanhood. The United
Nations’ president Mr. Ban ki- Moon has come forward and expressed all his
support and he requested to all the countries to unite with the Movement to
fight against this cruelty. He added that one of his principal efforts is to
curb globally the activities and attacks against women and Girl children. He
expressed all his support against this
ill practice. Also he reminded to take
drastic action against those who commit Civil Disobedience to the laws related to this.
