“#FightTheOdds is purposed to create more awareness about cancer and the importance of self-examination. Recent studies have shown that 20% of breast cancer is discovered by self-examination rather than mammography and we must realise that cancer is not a respecter of persons.

“It could happen to anyone, even a celebrity 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! #Powerful #BreastCancerAwareness #CancerSucks #HopeForACure” she wrote.
