The author examines female genital mutilation, a tribal practice dominant in Africa, from a theological, psychological and medical perspective. With a special reference to Kenya, he studied the genesis and survival of this practice to the present day, documenting side effects of this inhuman terror against women. The method of study included secondary resources from existing documented information and oral interviews. The author concluded that eradication of female genital mutilation will be accomplished by consistent interdisciplinary efforts by the communities of faith, the medical community and women-based non-governmental organizations. Education at the grassroots village level will lead to empowerment of women and eradication of these atrocities and crimes by a male dominated culture. May justice roll like a mighty river over mother Africa.
