D'banj has reportedly been making strong contacts both in US and globally all in the effort of fighting for Africa.

Popular Nigerian artist D'banj has finally met with his lifetime mentor, Bobby Shriver; an activist, attorney, journalist and a member of the Kennedy Family as well as one time Mayor in the Santa Monica City council, California.

The singer, who is currently in USA to promote the Year of Agriculture campaign in partnership with the One Campaign Organization, reportedly paid a visit to Shriver's home after attending the just ended African Leaders Summit in Washington DC.

D'banj has reportedly been making strong contacts both in US and globally all in the effort of fighting for Africa. His rep says, "D'banj is not only re-inventing his music but also making a strong impact in Africa and the world in general."

According to reports, the DB Records boss also endorsed The Red Manifesto, a brand licensing company that raises money for the Global Fund to fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria. RED was created back in 2006 by Bobby Shriver and U2 lead singer BONO.
