Annie Idibia like You’ve Never Seen Her Before! Check Out Her Photos for a Breast Cancer Shoot
To bring issues to light for disease, Annie postured for a Breast Cancer-enlivened shoot by makeup artist Banjo Laide of ArabyLaide and photographer, Emmanuel Oyeleke, labeled #FightTheOdds.
The object is "to make more mindfulness about cancer and the significance of self examination. Late studies have demonstrated that 20% of bosom cancer is found independent from self examination rather than mammography and we must realize that cancer is not a respecter of persons. It could transpire, even a VIP like Annie Idibia. Imagine the lives that will be saved if more women physically checked themselves on a regular basis, imagine if we could stand against breast cancer by fighting the odds via self examination. Let’s save the life of a woman today, let’s examine ourselves today!“
The shoot is a personal one for makeup artist, Banjo Laide. She shared her inspiration for the shoot which stems from her close encounter with Breast Cancer, via Instagram.
She wrote;
“At the age of 18 I had a breast cancer scare as I noticed a hard lump on my left breast and a swelling occurred. After being examined I discovered it was a lump, and the doctor scheduled an appointment for it to be removed. But on the day of the surgery it was a miracle as it disappeared. It resurfaced again and I had no option but to do a mammogram. At the end of the day it was discovered I had high Prolactin level – a disorder that causes the pituitary gland to produce more Prolactin than normal. Although I was cancer free, the incidence was a wake up call on the importance of regular self examination. Because of this I decided to team up with Nollywood actress/entrepreneur Annie Idibia @AnnieIdibia1, and ace photographer Emmanuel Oyeleke @EmmanuelOyeleke, to create this look with the project called #FightTheOdds portraying that anyone can be a victim of cancer even a celebrity. S/o to the whole team who made this work.“
We have to admit, it’s a stirring photo that drives the point across.
