Even though different regions and tribes have varying cultural practices, circumcisions cuts across many if not all. The practice was carried out by specific people in the community in the past. However, this is not the case anymore because of exposure to viral diseases which have no cure. Circumcision in London is now a procedure carried out by surgeons.
