To mark
the World Prematurity Day, 2face joined other celebrities to walk for love in Ghana to lend a
helping hand to creating awareness
of prematurity and its effects and to honour the babies born too
early.
The two
hour 7km annual charity
walk, tagged ‘Walk for Love to save a life’ was organised by LittleBigSouls (LBS)
of Ghana as part of the activities to mark the Day.
As LBS’s
international celebrity ambassador, 2face showed his total support by full
participation in the Walk that attracted representation from government,
hospitals, nursing associations, organisations and families of premature.
Speaking on his participation in the
historic walk, 2face said it is an honour to have the opportunity to make the
little contributions that sometimes make a huge impact in the life of others.
“I had a great time in Accra and the
"walk-out" was quite rewarding and a lot of fun. I call on everyone, individuals,
corporate organizations and government agencies to support the cause. There's
so much to do and there's a lot every person can do,” he said.
Having walked through principal
streets of Accra, the Now Muzik managed artiste and the others ended up at
Cleaver House for a picnic and fun day.
2face was joined by other
celebrities like Prince Mydas, Prince David Osei, Martha Ankomah, Virna Michel,
Jazz singer Ofie Kodjoe, Efe Omorogbe of Now Muzik and Nigerian actor David
Daniels.

the first premature baby charity in Africa, is a non-profit organisation
