Ugandan Rapper Advocates for peace in Homes

In a virtual meeting held on Zoom, Banks emphasized the need for collective action, education, and urgent measures to promote the advancement and empowerment of women worldwide. He encouraged community members to report physical, emotional, and economic violence in homes and communities, using the tragic incident of Rebecca Cheptegei as an example. Cheptegei was reportedly killed in a domestic violence incident by her boyfriend, a senseless act that has sparked outrage and calls for action.

The meeting was held shortly after Banks was signed by October’s Very Own (OVO), a Canadian record label owned by Canadian rapper Drake Graham. The OVO ceremony was a significant milestone in Banks’ career, and he is now using his platform to raise awareness about important social issues.

Banks expressed his gratitude to OVO for the opportunity to join their team and for their support in his mission to create positive change. He also thanked his fans for their unwavering support and encouraged them to join him in this important campaign.

“I am honored to be part of the OVO family and to have the opportunity to use my platform to raise awareness about issues that affect our communities,” said Banks. “I urge everyone to join me in this campaign and to take action to create a society where every woman and girl can live free from fear and harm.”

Banks also called upon the government to integrate functional literacy and numeracy programs, promote human rights education, and provide education and skills training to increase girls’ opportunities for employment and access to decision-making processes.

The campaign is a crucial step towards creating a society where every woman and girl can live free from fear and harm, promoting a culture of respect, equality, and empowerment for all. The public is encouraged to participate in the upcoming sickle cell run in Tororo on November 30.

By joining forces, we can make a difference and create a brighter future for all. Let us work together to create a society where every woman and girl can thrive and reach their full potential.”
