...Zimbabwe's male ministers will all face the 'cut' as part of a nationwide campaign to prevent the spread of HIV. Research indicates male circumcisions can help prevent infections of HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.Deputy Prime Minister Thokozani Khupe, who is spearheading the program said all men in the 150-member parliament and all male councillors should undergo the minor operation.
“Research has shown that circumcised men are eight times less likely to contract HIV. All the ministers should go for the exercise if our aims of reducing the spread of HIV and AIDS are to be translated into reality. As leaders in government, we should lead by example," she said. Zimbabwe is one of 13 countries in East and Southern Africa participating in a $2.5 billion program to circumcise 38 million men - 80 per cent of the male population under 49 years old - over the next 15 years.
...The government of Zim should solicit services of Kenyan Matatu boys to handle those cases of men who may not want to cooperate.
...Isn't this a violation of people's rights? Mtu akitaka kuvaa ngozi yake aachwe!!!
