In a village in Mbano, Imo State, a woman named Sanni Shukurat Oluwatosin bravely has spoken out against a harmful and outdated cultural practice that has plagued her community for generations. The practice in question is female genital mutilation, a tradition that every female child in the village is forced to undergo.

Tragically, Sanni’s first child, Bimbo, fell victim to this brutal practice and lost her life due to the unbearable pain and trauma inflicted upon her. Witnessing the devastating impact it had on her beloved daughter, Sanni has determined to protect her second child, Toibat Adetoun, from the same fate.

Driven by a mother’s love and a fierce desire to safeguard her child’s well-being, Sanni is now seeking asylum abroad. Her goal is to escape the confines of this harmful tradition and provide a safe and secure future for Toibat Adetoun, free from the shadows of the past that haunt her village.
