A young Black male stands in Barakin Akawo, Nigeria, leaning against a fluted light-colored column on the left side of the frame. He wears a dark blue long-sleeved shirt, olive green trousers, and black and white striped slide sandals. A teal backpack is visible on his shoulders. He is looking downwards, with his left hand holding a small Nigerian flag (green-white-green with the national coat of arms) by its white stick, positioning it into a terracotta pot containing a succulent plant and small sprouts. His right hand rests on his right knee. To his left, a light blue and white striped plastic pot with small sprouts sits near the column's base. The background consists of a reddish-brown wall and light brown tiled flooring. A leafy plant is visible on a raised step in the far right background.
