Nnedi:

Kola's autobiography is inflammatory. She discusses the cliterectomy she was given as a child

Nafisa:

That's a mistake by the magazine writer. Kola was "infibulated", but her clitoris was never
removed. Most Southern Nilotic tribes do not remove the clitoris during FGR, but the
writer is from West Africa.
