'Julia Fox Should Know Better': An FGM Survivor On Star's Shocking Closed Vagina Outfit trib.al/bfOnUUp

Thank you British GLAMOUR for giving the space to write about Juila Fox’s horrific bikini: #endfgm . glamourmagazine.co.uk/article/nimco-…

' #JuliaFox 's ‘closed vagina’ outfit isn't fashion – it's triggering and traumatic for FGM survivors, like me'. Our CEO Nimco Ali (OBE) 🪬 wrote for British GLAMOUR glamourmagazine.co.uk/article/nimco-… #EndFGM

The statement it is making is: that you are indifferent to the suffering of millions of African women. The depiction of FGM on the knickers is gross and offensive. Our abuse is not fashion.

It is quite pleasing that the President, President Barrow has emphasized at such a crucial time that the country is not ruled with Sharia Law but rather the Constitution and other laws. This has been our strong stance in our commitment to protect our women and girls. We use this…

'Philanthropy, Please Stop Ignoring One of the World's Greatest Abuses Against Women - Female Genital Mutilation'. As relevant now as last July when our CEO Nimco Ali (OBE) 🪬 wrote it for The Chronicle of Philanthropy: philanthropy.com/article/philan… #Africasfemalefuture #EndFGM

“This is about women and the control of women’s bodies.”

Despite outcry from activists and survivors, #TheGambia ’s parliament advanced a bill to decriminalise female genital mutilation. If the bill is passed, the country could become the first to reverse a ban on FGM.

Bill seeking to repeal Gambia’s law banning FGM is putting women & girls at risk. 'This fight is not just a call to repeal the law on FGM but if this request succeeds, we are going to see a widespread rollback on other fundamental rights of women & girls,' Alimatu Dimonekene MBE #EndFGMGambia

Population growth and instability in areas of high prevalence of female genital mutilation means that we are continuing to fight an uphill battle.

A global alliance for FGM elimination is needed now more than ever.

Ending female genital mutilation (FGM) is a human rights issue.

We all have a responsibility to push forward for women & girls EVERYWHERE.

We join UN The Gambia and our Regional Goodwill Ambassador Jaha Marie Dukureh to call for an end to this harmful practice.

📣 There is no justification whatsoever for Female Genital Mutilation.

Upholding the law isn't just right, it's the best thing to do!

Our CEO Nimco Ali (OBE) 🪬 spoke to NPR with UNFPA-UNICEF JP to End Female Genital Mutilation Wisal Ahmed about The Gambia's devastating moves to try to repeal its #FGM ban. #EndFGM npr.org/sections/goats…

The attack on the anti-FGM bill by an extremist cleric in Gambia is just the first step in rolling back legislation that protects women’s and girls in the Country. I am incredibly proud of the work Jaha Marie Dukureh and others are doing but the UK especially needs to do more.

Last October, a woman whose #4Yearold daughter was cut without her consent reported the case to the police. I accompanied her when she was asked to report, however when we got there, the police kicked us out saying they had orders from the top to not take #FGMCases !

I am devastated at what’s happening in The Gambia where crazy men are trying to roll back women’s rights.
