GIRL CHILD

In most of the Kenyan communities, it is believed to date that girls should be circumcised and should not go to school to achieve western education. In terms of education, parents have been majorly insensitive of gender. They have their sons to learn the western education and leave their daughters at home to perform household chores, graze the cattle and prepare for marriage.
A big question is who will marry these uneducated girls of theirs yet in other parts, girls get education.
Who will allow his/her son to marry a woman who is uneducated? who is not circumcised? In return, they would be married to old men who death is knocking at their doors.
I appreciate the youth ambassadors for agreeing to carry out this difficult task of educating the community on girl child. I will not appeased before I I say that if you educate a girl then you educate the nation.
Girls are nowadays focused  than even boys in most schools. Though the ambassadors have tried, I plead with them to soldier on with their work since hard work pays and never shall it go unnoticed.
In conclusion, others should join hand with the ambassadors for them to fight a common enemy and discourage Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) and educate the people on the importance of girl-child  as its one of the rights of a girl being undertaken.
