Our aim is to make clear that criminalization, by itself, can not lead to the abandonment of the practice of excision which serves as a rite of passage and recognition of the young girl in her Mangôrô society. But it is necessary to begin by enlightening the mentalities using more participative means, especially as the practice of excision, is significant for the Mangôrô people in Katiola. In fact, the latter, allows to highlight, the hidden powers of the Mangôrô woman, especially the specialist of excision.
