Africa is home to a variety of culture and rich tradition. But it also has a bunch of ‘weird’ sexual customs that have for some time now been courting controversy.
Proponents of these customs often talk about how beneficial they are, but in these modern times, critics say such customs which are believed to be still ongoing in some remote villages should be done away with as they are either a violation of human rights or contributing to sexually transmitted diseases.
