Bono is probably the busiest Africa lobbyist of the decade. Every time I look up, he’s involved in some Africa-related initiative. What separates him from the rest of the celebrity Africa-enthusiasts is his ability to develop initiatives which explore new avenues to address Africa’s issues. In the past few days alone, he’s been awarded an NAACP Image Award, proposed to take American Idol to Africa, and taken up post as editor of Vanity Fair’s July issue. In his words “Africa is sexy and people need to know that” Here, here.
Here’s video of his acceptance speech at the NAACP Image Awards.
