An outdoor scene in Fagge A, Nigeria, depicts a single adult male engaged in sorting plastic waste

An outdoor scene in Fagge A, Nigeria, depicts a single adult male engaged in sorting plastic waste. The man, dressed in a faded red short-sleeved shirt, dark trousers, and a light-colored cap, is bent forward at the waist, sifting through a substantial pile of clear and multicolored plastic bags and containers that cover the ground. In the midground, several large, irregularly shaped bales of compressed, light-colored plastic material are stacked. Behind these bales, a barrier constructed from rusted, corrugated metal sheets is visible. The distant background, obscured by haze, includes a multi-story, unfinished concrete building with exposed rebar to the left, and a smaller structure featuring a dark cylindrical tank on its roof to the right. A concrete utility pole with multiple overhead electrical wires traverses the upper midground. The environment is dominated by accumulated plastic refuse under diffused lighting conditions.
