An urban market street is depicted, lined with makeshift stalls constructed from wooden frames and dark, weathered overhead coverings. The central passageway features a dark, uneven ground surface, appearing to be compacted dirt or worn concrete. In the background, a multi-story, light-colored residential or commercial building with balconies and windows is visible, along with a utility pole, a street sign displaying "ENGR.", and a political poster featuring a man's portrait and the text "GOWON... PRESIDENT." Multiple individuals, predominantly women, are present and engaged in market activities. In the foreground, left of center, a woman in a blue patterned top and black skirt holds a plate of green leafy vegetables. Further right, a woman in a blue short-sleeved top and black skirt stands with her back to the camera, facing a stall. Other figures are interspersed throughout the busy market aisle. Various goods are displayed for sale. In the immediate foreground, four large, woven baskets rest on the ground, filled with dried fish or similar preserved food items. To the far left, rolls of patterned fabric are visible on a stall. Stalls on the right display substantial quantities of fresh green leafy vegetables on wooden tables and in plastic basins. A red plastic bowl is partially visible in the bottom right corner. A blue market umbrella is visible further down the street. The scene is illuminated by natural daylight, casting shadows beneath the stall coverings.
