Known for his unfiltered opinions, the former radio host opened up about the experience and its impact, saying it’s a decision he wishes he could reverse.
Kibe’s advice to parents
His remarks come just a month after he urged Kenyan parents to abandon the long-term culture of circumcising boys.
Speaking during a conversation with radio host Jacquey Nyaminde, widely known as Wibroda, Kibe said that the culture is outdated and that parents should stop taking their male children for circumcision.
He added that the meaning and purpose of the practice have faded, adding that, currently, it has been debunked.
“I find circumcision as an outdated practice. I think we should stop circumcising our kids right now. There is no meaning behind it anymore, there is no reason, and it has been debunked, and it has no benefits,” Kibe said.
Kibe argued that circumcision, once promoted as a cultural or health necessity, no longer serves its supposed purpose in modern society.
He further criticised those who perpetuate the practice, claiming that historical justifications were misleading.
“Unajua zamani walikuja wakatudanganya unajua ku circumcise inasaidia hiyo ni uwongo, it was a lie,” he said.
In addition, the former radio host highlighted how societal norms and modern pressures influence parents to continue the ritual, even when it may not be necessary:
“There is no reason to circumcise your boys, but society is adjusting to the single woman, the single mother; society is now selling products, and circumcision is one of the products,” he stated.
Kibe also shared his personal decision, revealing that he will not circumcise his own son. He emphasised that most single mothers would take their sons for circumcision because they are told about the anaesthesia that reduces the pain during the process.
“As a man am not going to take my son to that kind of process, but as a woman, you will kwanza umeambiwa kuna international and local anaesthesia anadungwa sindano ndio asisikie uchungu,” Kibe added.
