A day after Homa Bay Town MP Peter Kaluma called for the abolition of male circumcision, celebrated singer Suzanna Owiyo has shared her thoughts on the controversial issue.

Kaluma, in a post on his X account, described the practice as outdated, stating, “Donkeys don’t circumcise. No animals do, except for a few humans who have been misled into believing they are descendants of Abraham.”

His remarks sparked a fierce debate, with many expressing strong opinions on both sides.

In response, Owiyo shared a video on her social media, dismissing the conversation as a “tired narrative.”

The 49-year-old Afro-fusion artist emphasized, “What people fail to understand is that women are in a better position to explain all this. It is simple: Our private parts do not care about the circumcised or non-circumcised organs.”

She added, “Majority of women wameonja kitu imekatwa na yenye haijakatwa”.

Her post ignited further debate, with many opposing her stance, while others voiced their support.
