Other African rising stars for the campaign include South Africans, Fhatuwani Mukheli an internationally exhibited artist, filmmaker and photographer, and an internationally celebrated visual artist devoted to healing people through art, Qhamanande Maswana who blends reality with imagination in each portrait; Kenyans, Henry Ohanga, the award-winning recording and performing artiste known as Octopizzo, and renowned urban soul singer, songwriter and producer, Fena Gitu who has partners with local and international artistes; Cameroonian singer and rapper, Njang Mengu Collins (aka Ko-C), who fuses Afropop and hip-hop in his songs that have led to international music nominations, and Jacqueline Acheampong-Gyakie, a Ghanaian singer, songwriter and performer with several local and international awards.
