A large, dark metallic sculpture, known as the "Drummer Boy," is affixed to the facade of the National Museum Lokoja, located in Lokoja, Kogi State, Nigeria. The sculpture depicts a stylized male figure in an ascending vertical posture, poised in the act of playing a drum. The figure's left arm is raised with a drumstick-like implement, while the right arm holds a djembe-style drum. The lower portion of the sculpture features abstract, elongated forms tapering to a point. The building's exterior presents two distinct architectural sections. To the left of the sculpture, the wall is clad with horizontal rectangular tiles in varying shades of brown, beige, and grey, bordered by vertical white columns. To the right, the building features a reddish-brown painted section with a white horizontal trim directly beneath the roofline. This reddish-brown section displays a multi-colored emblem or logo with abstract shapes and text. Partially visible below this section are architectural recesses or windows. The scene is observed under a partly cloudy blue sky, illuminated by natural daylight. No live individuals are present; the sole human subject is the stationary sculpture.
