The scene depicts a communal water collection point on an unpaved, muddy dirt road in Lokoja, Nigeria, under an overcast sky. In the left foreground, a woman wearing a patterned, possibly pink and blue, dress stands barefoot on two stacked dark tires, reaching towards multiple spigots affixed to a light-colored concrete wall. She holds a large black basin. Below the spigots, other buckets and containers are placed on a lower concrete structure. The wall is topped with coils of barbed wire. To the immediate right of the first woman, a second woman, dressed in a green t-shirt and patterned shorts or skirt, stands. Further to the right, two young girls are present: a younger girl in a striped dress stands next to the second woman, and an older girl in a white t-shirt and dark skirt holds a white enamel basin, looking towards the water source. The unpaved ground in the foreground and mid-ground is wet and muddy, displaying numerous puddles and scattered debris, including plastic bags and other refuse. In the background, a two-story, unpainted concrete block house with a dark, gabled roof is prominently visible. Further down the dirt road, two additional figures, one appearing to carry an object on their head, are faintly discernible. Dense green foliage and trees line the distant parts of the background.
