Street vendors and everyday hustle in Igboefon, LagosIgboefon, Nigeria

A person walks away from the camera, carrying a large stack of wooden planks on their head, balanced on a green cloth. The person is wearing a black t-shirt and pink floral shorts. They are also wearing green flip-flops. They are walking on a dirt path next to a massive pile of grey gravel. In the background, there are modern white buildings under a cloudy sky. To the left of the frame, there is a red umbrella with "Coca-Cola" written on it, and a few people are visible standing under it. The scene is set in Igboefon, Nigeria, likely a construction site or material yard.

A white Mercedes-Benz CLA 200 sedan is parked on an asphalt driveway in front of a modern, multi-story building with a white facade and balconies. The building features a prominent section clad in vertical wooden slats. Two outdoor security lights with solar panels are mounted on a white pillar near the gate. The vehicle's license plate is visible, reading "KTU 143KR". The background shows a grey metal fence and a white wall with orange graffiti. The sky is overcast. The scene is located in Igboefon, Nigeria.

An exterior, eye-level, medium shot captures a white hatchback parked on the grassy verge beside an orange-hued wall. The wall is topped with a dark brown, wooden slatted fence. Behind the fence, a large tree with lush green foliage dominates the left side of the frame, its branches extending towards the top of the image. A multi-story building with white and beige siding, and balconies with glass railings, is visible behind the tree on the right. A red-tiled roof of a smaller structure is partially visible between the tree and the larger building. A tall, silver metal pole stands in the foreground, slightly off-center to the right, obscuring a portion of the tree and the building. The sky is overcast and grey. The location is Igboefon, Nigeria.
