D’banj Album launch + Koko Foundation

27 July 2008 No Comment

The city of Lagos in Nigeria stood still for Dapo Oyebanjo popularly known as D’Banj as he launched his new album titled ‘The Entertainer’. WRT was at the album launch event which drew the who’s who of Nigerian society. The guests at the event included the Governor of Lagos State Babatunde Raji Fashola (SAN), the former governor of Lagos State Sen. Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Ben Murray Bruce (who gave a remarkable speech, no papers, no screen guides), the list is endless. The event was also used to promote his charitable organization known as Koko Foundation for Youth and Peace Development (KOFYPED); D’banj is Nigeria’s first United Nations Youth Ambassador for peace.

Speaking about the album, D’Banj says: “I try not to remind my listeners of the high level of unemployment, poverty, disease, electricity outages including the pains and all the troubles in this world”

“All the songs are my personal experiences and journey through life. I hope to touch everyone with this album and I pray the people find it worthwhile.”

There’s no gain-saying the fact that if you were not at the album launch, nor the concert that took place the next day…believe me, you missed out BIG TIME. But, not to worry, WRT brings you pictures from the event.
