ICYMI: On July 8, 2025, the #ECOWAS Court ruled FGM is “one of the worst forms of violence against women” and found #SierraLeone violated #humanrights by not banning it. A powerful win for survivor Kadija, @ForumHarmful & @Purposeful_org. Proud to have represented them. #EndFGM

In this my OpEd, I reflect on how a visit to @Tacugama Chimpanzee Sanctuary in 2018 rescued my own sense of hope after working with young survivors of sexual violence and why its imminent closure over land encroachment should alarm us all. medium.com/@thealima/how-…
Sierra Leone cannot credibly claim to protect children when it allows their mutilation to continue legally and politically. The future of this country lies in the wellbeing of its children. Parliament’s action sends the opposite message that girls’ lives and bodies as pawns.

🇸🇱 Sierra Leone’s children deserve safety! @ILRAJ2 CEO @MichaelBasita urges Parliament to pass the Child Rights Act, 2024! Protect our children from abuse, child marriage, & FGM. Reinstate protections against harmful practices for a safer future. 🇸🇱 #ChildRightsAct2024 #EndFGM…
📢🌍 Violence against women & girls is a global crisis. Today, we unite across the world in the urgency of #16DaysOfActivism. There is #NoExcuse for any form of violence that denies us the right to live in freedom, not fear.
(6) Sierra Leone can never achieve its true potential while FGM remains legal and our First Lady is openly supporting those who want this horrific act to continue.
