Nigerian musician Durella has become a supporter for the 1 GAME Campaign naijasportivo.blogspot.com understands. The entertainer’s picture appeared on the organization’s website www.play1game.org among ambassadors and supporters for the anti-football violence campaign. His involvement brings to four, the number of musical artistes that have signed for the initiative, coming after Jamaican Reggae star Shaggy, hip-hop duo P-Square and long serving music sensation Pasto Goody Goody.
1 GAME founder Philip Obaji had hinted a few months back that Durella will be part of his organization’s effort to stamp out violence and negative fanaticism from football, a move that clearly has materialized.
Durella was born to Mr and Mrs Okulaja, who named him Oluwadamilare (the Lord has rewarded me). Going to secondary school in Lagos, brought the love of music out in Durella. With performances at schools events leading to a loyal following of adoring fans in and around his school, Durella knew then, as he does now, that performing as an artiste was what he wanted to do.
In December 08 Durella won MTV Advance Warning, a contest design to announce the next Nigerian Super Star.
On the 26th of July 09 Durella was appointed the UN Youth Ambassador for Peace.
