George has been focusing his humanitarian efforts on the deadly violence in the border area of Abyei. He was a witness to the voting process that will likely lead to the independence for Southern Sudan.

Piers asked George if he gets upset when people say his charity work is for "self-aggrandizing reasons."

"I don't need to be more famous," George said. "I've got all the attention I need and I'm just trying to use that attention on other people."
