Female Genital Mutilation Persists in Kenya Despite Ban

In Kenya, a harmful practice called female genital mutilation (FGM) is still happening, even though it was made illegal in 2011.

In some places like Narok County, many girls are still being cut.

People believe it's a tradition, but it's very dangerous and can cause health problems.

Some brave people are trying to stop it by rescuing girls and teaching the community.

However, many still support FGM because of cultural beliefs and fear of being ostracized.

The government says the number of girls affected has gone down, but in some areas, it's still very high.

There's a lot of work to be done to end this practice.
