This image captures a bright daytime street scene in Zaria, Nigeria. The central figure is an older Black male, positioned slightly right of center, looking forward with a neutral to weary expression. He wears a multi-striped kufi cap and a long, mauve-colored traditional tunic (kaftan style) with light brown embroidered detailing on the round neckline and a square chest pocket. His mouth is slightly open, revealing partial gaps in his upper front teeth. In his right hand, which hangs by his side, he holds a dark brown or black plastic kettle-like object. In the left background, a person in red fabric is partially visible, alongside another individual wearing a dark shirt and a black baseball cap. A light-colored concrete pillar is present in the immediate left foreground. The right background features part of a yellow motorized tricycle (keke Napep), white bags labeled "PURE SUGAR," and various boxes, suggesting a market or street vendor stall. A dark, ornate pillar is also visible further back on the right. The ground surface appears unpaved, dusty, and uneven. Indistinct figures and structures populate the midground.
