Interfaces from the”CerviBreast” Mobile Phone Application

An OCI Foundation-owned video was produced by established producers and movie stars in Nollywood (Nigeria’s own movie industry and the third biggest movie industry in the world), so as to give the teachings contained in the App a Nigerian Content. Among the stars featuring on the short video is the London-born Ebelle Okaro Onyiuke, a Nollywood veteran and well-respected actress, who has nearly half a million followers on her Instagram Page. Below are vidoes from the production.

The video was directed by Young-G Obi, a young, talented and vibrant movie editor, screen writer, director and actor who can be found through his Facebook and Instagram social media handles.  Some scenes for this video were shot in Asaba, Nigeria, on Monday, August the 5th, 2019, and below are a few images from the recording.

With the network already established by the OCI Foundation, it is expected that the App will be downloaded by millions of Nigerian men and women, as the ArOY Health Campaign begins to spread around the Country.  We have networks with top Nollywood stars, the Anambra State Government of Nigeria, the Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Nigeria, the Griffith University, Australia, and the Harvard medical School, USA. In the months to come, we also expect to have a Nigerian national reach, with support from the highest levels of Nigerian Government expected in due course.

And yes, there are partnership opportunities. The App has multiple provisions for goodwill messages from potential sponsors and partners. With the wide reach of the App, your business can reach millions of Nigerians monthly.
