Actress Victoria Inyama has opened up about her experience with female circumcision, saying it was the best thing that happened to her.

In an Instagram live session with medical personality Daddy Freeze, Inyama revealed she underwent the procedure while living with her grandmother in a village.

According to Inyama, circumcision gives her power over men, allowing her to control intimacy.

She stated that it's the reason no one can accuse her of being in compromising situations.

The actress emphasised that her grandmother made the right decision, enabling her to set boundaries.

Inyama expressed gratitude for the experience, saying it's a key part of her personal strength.

“Yes, I was circumcised. Because I grew up in the village with my grandmother, and that is what is helping me. That’s the best thing they did for me.

"I swear to God because if I say I am not doing, I am not doing. And that is the power that I have as a woman, and anybody who tries me, I will give you back. No one can say they saw me in hotels. That’s the best thing my grandmother did for me”, she said.

Female genital mutilation (FGM) is a controversial practice with debated health implications.
