Sarkodie is part of a crack core of six African artistes brought together by pay-tv company, Multichoice Africa, for its �Africa Rising� themed campaign song�. The song, which the company says is part of an upcoming campaign to drum home the many positives of the continent, was formally made public at an event in the Island nation of Mauritius on Tuesday. All six acts with the exception of Tanzania�s Diamond, made it to the event, which was attended by media personnel from across the continent, and some content owners, providers and marketers. �MultiChoice Africa has an important role to play in both the economic and social transformation of our continent and we believe that this campaign provides the ideal platform to showcase meaningful change amongst the people of Africa,� says Nico Meyer, CEO MultiChoice Africa. �We strongly believe that the quest for good corporate citizenship starts with an acceptance of responsibility, not only to our subscribers and stakeholders, but to the broader African community in which we operate and are certain that the collaboration with these award winning African artists will be the glue that binds communities together creating a catalyst for change,� Nico adds.
