After the group meeting in Mannekunda, Basse (Amie and Ylva on the left, alkalo on far right). The elder man in white in the front row told me: “This may be a women’s affair, but it affects us men, as well. One of my wives took our daughter back to her mother’s house to be circumcised. The girl died. We didn’t use to know the bad effects.” Former circumciser (next to Ylva) was given seed money to start a soap business; she says people have stopped even trying to bring girls to her to cut. Amie Bojang-Sissoho and Oustass Fayinke in his compound in Basse. Amie explained about the unique support Fayinke has been giving them: “He is not only knowledgeable in the Qu’ran, but has a deep understanding about social psychology.” Oustass Fayinke, Basse. “Things have changed a lot in the last ten years. When the real truth is revealed, there can be no argument. There is no religious scholar in the URR who will sit down and argue this issue with me.” Oustass Fayinke, Basse. “Things have changed a lot in the last ten years.
