NIGERIA’S sensational pop star, D’banj, made history within the week, as he joined other eminent personalities across the world to launch The Year of Agriculture at the AU Summit in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The historic event held between Friday, January 24 and Friday, January 31. The wave-making artiste launched the official name and logo of the campaign as well as ONE’s online petition, while calling on leaders to invest more in agriculture. D’banj, who was announced at a press briefing in Lagos during the week as the face of the campaign, will also lead top artistes from around the continent to record a song that will be produced by Cobhams. He will also feature in a music video aimed at promoting agriculture among the youths on the continent. “I look forward to this project. The fact that I will be working with some of Africa’s biggest stars is fantastic,” Cobhams Asuquo said during the press conference. D’banj joined other African leaders and farming businessmen, including former president Olusegun Obasanjo, to launch the Year of Agriculture at the AU Summit. It will be recalled that Dbanj recently shared a picture of himself in a cocoa farm in Ghana, a situation that has further confirmed his huge investment in farming. posted on February 01, 2014 at 12:05AM Send an email to Joseph T.
