This image, captured in Markurdi, Nigeria, displays an outdoor cooking setup. The central subject is a silver-colored aluminum pot with a matching lid, featuring two side handles and a top knob handle. The pot rests on an improvised cooking stove, which is a rusty, dark brown, square-shaped metal structure. Inside the top section of this stove, several grey, irregularly shaped rocks are visible, supporting the pot and likely containing fuel remnants. Below the pot and within the lower section of the metal stove, black ash and charcoal residue are present. The entire cooking apparatus is positioned on a light-colored wooden bench, composed of two horizontal planks supported by two vertical wooden legs. The background consists of a light grey, unpainted concrete or stucco wall, exhibiting dark vertical streaks and minor imperfections. To the far right, a dark vertical door frame or similar structure is partially visible. The ground surface around the bench is light-colored concrete or compacted earth. No individuals are present in the scene. A small, light orange cloth or object is visible on the ground to the far right. The image bears a timestamp "2025/12/28 11:07" in the lower left corner.
