I attended the #TIME100Health dinner in New York on Monday. Thank you TIME for the honor and it was so great seeing so many friends after a while. As always! We gotta show how beautiful our culture is despite the challenges we are dealing with. #Gambia #Fulani #EndFGM220
#TogetherWeCan appeal to the conscience of decision makers to protect the vulnerable girls against #FGM and other #HTPs . Facts not emotions. Ministry of Health Gambia you took the step in the right direction. You are the national authority on health issues and glad you took responsibility.
Always proud to partner with Jaha Marie Dukureh Safe Hands For Girls to #EndFGM in The Gambia!
The leadership of NGBV-The Gambia and Tango during these moments in the Gambia has been so crucial in getting civil society to work together. Bajen and I look like we are about to fight someone. Pictures from CSO engagement with the National Assembly Committee. #EnsFGM220
The CSO coalitions in the Gambia is working together to ensure that the law against FGM is not repealed. #EndFGM220
Today my heart bleeds for all these little girls and what they have had to endure. It’s one thing for you to not know! But after this presentation. If our National Assembly members don’t throw this bill out. Then I don’t know what more can be said or done. #EndFGM220
Jaha Marie Dukureh President Barrow I really welcome the OIC statement on fgm elimination. This is a solid and positive statement on protection of women and girls from this harmful practice
Good morning President Barrow! I want to personally congratulate you for taking over the chairmanship of the OIC. Muslim nations gathered in our country this weekend and they agree that FGM must end. Help us keep the ban against the practice. #EndFGM220
The fight to stop the Overturn of the ban on female genital mutilation (FGM) in the Gambia🇬🇲 continues.
Such a regression would not only endanger Gambian women & girls but also set a disastrous signal for women's rights accross the continent.
