This image depicts a female individual engaged in packaging or sorting activities within Ukwu-Abwa, Nigeria. The scene is set on a reddish-brown earth ground, indicative of laterite soil, with sparse green vegetation and a dirt path leading into the background. The central figure is a female, seen in profile, bending over a wheelbarrow. She wears a light brown long-sleeved shirt, dark trousers or skirt, and a black and white patterned headband. A small cross earring is visible on her right ear. Her hands are submerged within a large, open blue plastic bag, which is contained inside a black drum with a yellow rim and yellow handles. This drum rests on the metallic tray of a wheelbarrow. Also on the wheelbarrow, to the left of the main drum, is a smaller open black plastic bag containing dark, solidified material. To the right of the drum, several clear translucent plastic containers of varying sizes are visible. Some of these containers hold a white, possibly granular or powdery substance. One clear container has a light blue handle, another a black handle. In the background, several simple, one-story buildings with corrugated metal roofs are visible. Laundry is hanging to dry near one building. Two distant figures are discernible on the dirt path, one wearing a blue shirt, moving away from the foreground. Scattered debris is present on the ground.
