The practice is done by people who don\u2019t have any medical training and don\u2019t know the complications.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn surgery we have principles; you don\u2019t just cut anyhow because if you cannot deal with the complications, you are advised not to cut. The cutting should be done by people who undergo medical training even though we have a law in the Gambia that does not medicalize FGM.\u2019\u2019 he added.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2019FGM is practiced secretly in the country and even outside the country. We are not reporting FGM cases despite that we know that the law is there whether, it is good or bad but it is still available as far as FGM is concerned.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>He laments that, it is left to the Gambians to repeal the law and also advised that people should respect the law. \u2018\u2019From my own experience I think people should be careful before cutting as the complications are huge.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>For her part, Mba Sireh Saidy Bah, Program analyst at UNFPA revealed that the training is part of events marking 16 days activism which is an annual event and it is global.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDue to that we decided to engage the media to continue the long relationship we have in-terms of capacity strengthening.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>According to her, everyone knows the importance of the media because they serve as gate keepers and setting the space for public discuss.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2019Our mandate is one of the most difficult mandates among all the UN agencies because our work is at the head of the people\u2019s privacy, issues that they don\u2019t want to be discussed which is sexual and reproductive health.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/gambia\">Gambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia. that Female Genital Mutilation\/Cutting (FGM\/C) has bothimmediate and long-term complications.
