Ghanaian Mobo Award winner and Reggae Music icon Batman Samini has teamed up with his “Senior” in the Reggae Realms, Rocky Dawuni who is also a Ghanaian Musician to produce a song in collaboration with the UNICEF Office in Ghana about the water and sanitation problems in Ghana.
The Song titled ‘Clean Water’ has messages which advise Ghanaians on the need to conserve water and to keep their environment clean. The song tackles severe shortages of safe drinking water and basic sanitation facilities in the northern part of the region.
The song also hits hard on key messages that UNICEF and partners emphasize in their work to educate communities on the dangers of consuming contaminated water.
As UNICEF ambassadors, they will embark on series of musical concerts across the country to educate people on the importance of keeping our water bodies clean.
In a similar fashion in 2000, Ghana Music Reggae Monk Shasha Marley led a group of top notched hip-life, highlife and gospel musicians in Ghana to “sing aids” out of the country in a campaign dubbed "Stop AIDS, Love Life”.
Some other musicians included on the track were Tic Tac, Chicago, Friction (VIP), Black Prophet, Cil Pesewa, Felix Owusu, Cy-Lover, The Shepherds, Reggie Rockstone, Original Ras Korby, Stella Dugan and Diana Akiwumi.
The main purposes of the campaign was to increase awareness about HIV/AIDS in Ghana, to increase the adoption of safe sex behavior among Ghanaians, to de-stigmatize HIV/AIDS, and to encourage compassion, care and support for people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWA).
