Doctors have given the reasons to why circumcision to men is healthy. Why do the politicians want to politicize it now? Who said only circumcised men are good leaders? How do they even know that other politicians have not gone through the knife? This is a matter only the wives know, unless we think otherwise. You can’t base it that because it is not the culture of a certain community, all of them have not undergone the knife. Just because they don’t celebrate circumcision in a particular tribe does not mean they all have not gone through the knife. People should know by now that it is done even in the hospitals, and it’s not necessary to let every one know you underwent the act.
Let us not politicize this issue, it might seem as a joke to everyone but it very serious especially in this era in which we are trying to fight HIV/AIDS. I would love to encourage all the men out there….doesn;t matter which tribe you hail from, to embrace circumcision as a health issue and not as many perceive it. It doesn’t make one less of a man and vice versa.
To those who force others into the act, should instead talk to them and advice them on why it is good for them to be circumcised. To the leaders like Oburu and the other two who said they will undergo the knife………congratulations……but we hope you did all this for health reasons and not political.

Condoms work better.
They work but not 100%........on that case circumcision also may be of help............also reduces chances......but not 100% too.
Condoms work about 95%+, circumcision 60% so "circumcising to prevent HIV is like using condoms that break 40% of the time" - IF the studies are accurate, and there are plenty of doubts.
