Facebook user shares a photo of baby with a fresh big tribal mark; calls on lawmakers to stop this inhumane act



A Facebook user "Aisha Alubankudi" shares a photo a baby with fresh tribal mark with a big scar. He calls on the Lawmakers; Members of House of Assembly to enact law to curb or put an end to this dastardly act committed under the name of cultural heritage.


It should be noted that engraving of tribal marks is widespread among South-Westerners and the Northerners
in Nigeria. Each ethnic has it way of making tribal mark on babies as regards to their custom. So far this act have not been seen offensive and criminous in those areas of the country.
This callous act should be wiped out by entrenching appropriate laws to prevent babies and even teenagers from getting tribal marks. It could be allowed if if the individual is consented and he/she is willing without fear of any form.

Readers! share your opinions about this subject matter, it could go a long way.
