ONLINE How local barber mutilated Kano bride

- Ibrahim N. Abdullahi Alameen Ibn Abdullahi Adam Baba Kura Mustapha Muhammad Dadi Junaidu Adamu Barde Ibrahim Sajo Abba Usman

This is not a mistake. It is full blown ignorance on all sides. How do you circumcise a full grown woman in this century? She was mutilated by a person who does not have any medical training, and you call it a mistake? Haba Malam! It is high time we identified the real problem. It is a combinatio­n of ignorance and stupidity. More education is needed to know the difference between culture and commonsens­e. This is called a mistake. It can happen anywhere, so don’t hold it against him. Would you call it a mistake if it happens to your daughter? They should have waited for guidance and counsellin­g. It is very sad. Anyone involved in the act must face the law. Thumbs up to Sarkin Kano for being proactive on such issues. It is the price of disrespect­ing parents. Very sad
