2) I was so terrified; the email had specifications for dimensions, pictures, and they requested for my CV- me that stopped updating my Cv since 5 years now. When I saw the requirements I just gave up. Where would I start from ??♀️

6) Next was the issue of old people. Where will I find a group of old people at the same time. I went to old people’s home and it was a No! No! They refused. Then I remembered the beggars on the road in Ajah.

8) I sourced for a young male model and the remaining 4 people for the proposed artwork happened to be me and my team members. We decided to use the popular @faceapp to make us look older.

10) Voila!!!! It was all done. At the end of this entire process, I had spent almost 200k without knowing for sure if I was going to get the contract or not. But I submitted my proposal.
