Accra, capital of Ghana,
will play host to an array of African celebrities when they unite for a
solidarity march against human trafficking in December. Commenting, Abuja based
lawyer, Ndukwe Sam Obu, Founder/Chairman BoT of Next2None opened up on the
event: “We are glad to announce to you that the event is 90 per cent ready. The
most difficult part was to travel to many African countries to get the
endorsement of the various Ambassadors of those nations.
“We have travelled from
Liberia to South Africa, Namibia, Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya and Cameroun to carry
out a survey as to the present situation as it relates to human trafficking. We
intend to have for the very first time, a convergence of African celebrities in
Accra, Ghana, to have a celebrity walk against human trafficking.
“The Ghanaian government
has given us the Independence Square for all the stars to converge. After the
walk in the morning, African legends will be playing against Ghana legends in
an exhibition football match. Legends such as Senator George Weah, Roger
Miller, Jay Jay Okocha, John Fashanu and Lucas Radebe of South Africa are among
many other football legends that will feature in that match.” Obu added.
Meanwhile, the platform
has released the first 50 African celebrities billed to be part of the project.

Radebe, Rev Biodun Fatoyinbo, Christian Chukwu, Hajia Laradan Shuaibu, Keppy
