“Just like our last video that went viral, We have created a folder with all the videos (download link in bio). There are high-quality copies for broadcast and online use and there are also WhatsApp versions to share. Please let’s get it on all TV stations and if anyone can sponsor on youtube, they should. We couldn’t get to use a studio to record other languages so they aren’t as crisp.
“We have attached a music and effect file for anyone who wants to rework the dialogue to taste.
Remember it’s free to use. Just acknowledge @anthillstudios_ many thanks to all my wonderful staff for doing this great work.
“Directed by @bukky_awomolo, Animated by @bukky_awomolo @nebeolise @sax_kay @_taheer_efe @eriumusu
