Founder of ONE, multiple Grammy award winning lead singer, Sonny Bono of U2 hosted some Nigerian members of ONE in Lagos on August 27th 2015.
It was an interactive session that lasted more than two hours where more awareness was raised for the Poverty Is Sexist Campaign. The expectations for the new Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) due to start in September were also discussed. This era marks the end of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).
The venue was packed with special dignitaries from around the world: Co-founder of ONE, Jamie Drummond, Executive Director of ONE Africa, Dr. Sipho Moyo, Founder of MTV, CEO of Red, Deborah Dugan and other important personalities were present at the event. Bosun Tijani, CEO of Ce-Creation Hub and Ndidi Nwuneli were also among special guests at the event.
Nigerian celebrities, Waje and Omotola Jalade Ekeinde were also on hand to make the event very colourful.
ONE t-shirts and wristbands were distributed to members present. Guests were able to network whilst savouring the sumptuous refreshments made available.
Save Our Needy was represented by Marvella Odili (CEO) and Jerry Odili (Program Manager).
This memorable and fun event gave us the opportunity to meet and rub minds with people who share the same passion of fighting to end poverty in Africa.
