The scene depicts a group of six individuals, primarily women, engaged in the communal preparation of a root vegetable in Lafia, Nigeria. In the foreground left, a person wearing a dark top and cap is actively peeling a large, brown-skinned root, likely yam or cassava, using a knife. They are positioned over two large, black plastic basins on the dirt ground. The front basin contains numerous white, uniformly cut pieces of the peeled vegetable, while the rear basin holds more pieces alongside brown peelings. To the right, three women and an infant are seated, observing the peeling process. A woman in a purple headscarf and a patterned dress smiles, holding a blue object (possibly a mobile phone) towards the peeler. Behind her, another woman in a dark headscarf holds an infant wrapped in white cloth. Further right, a young woman in a blue t-shirt, red headscarf, and blue pants with white star-patterned stripes smiles, displaying a nose piercing. Another individual is partially visible behind her. The overall atmosphere suggests a cooperative and social activity, with several participants smiling and laughing. The environment is a shaded outdoor or semi-outdoor space with a dark background.
