A young male child, approximately primary school age and of African descent, walks forward on a dusty, unpaved road in Kubwa, Nigeria. He wears a short-sleeved pink and white checkered shirt, dark blue shorts, white socks, and blue and beige athletic shoes with velcro straps. A red and black patterned backpack is balanced on his head, and he holds a black strap in his mouth. Strong sunlight from the upper right casts a distinct shadow of the child to his left on the road. The road surface is light brown, uneven, and contains scattered debris including small stones, pieces of plastic, and paper, with faint tire tracks. To the child's left, a concrete drainage ditch runs parallel to the road. In the background, a row of single-story commercial or residential buildings with corrugated metal roofs lines the road. These structures are either unpainted white or show weathered facades, some featuring metal security gates or bars. A wooden stand and green bottled beverages are visible near one building. Further down the road, a person on a yellow motorcycle is seen in motion, receding into the distance. The sky above is clear and light blue.
