“I curse the practice of FGM and I don’t want any daughter of mine to go through this process that almost claimed my life," says Margaret Chepoteltel who was 13 when she underwent Female Genital Mutilation. She was looking forward to it back then. Little did she know that the procedure could cause lifelong health problems.
