The image depicts a roadside market scene in Jos, Nigeria, characterized by informal commercial activity alongside a main thoroughfare. The foreground consists of a reddish-brown dirt path, uneven and with sparse dry vegetation and scattered debris. To the immediate left, a tall corrugated metal fence, covered with various posters and advertisements, runs parallel to the path. Behind this fence, incomplete concrete block structures are visible. Further along the path, closer to the main road, a person sits on a wooden stool near a smaller corrugated metal structure. In the mid-ground, a vibrant red and white (or orange) striped umbrella shades a market stall. Near this stall, a wheelbarrow rests on the dirt, and a yellow plastic jerrycan is positioned on the ground. Several individuals are present in this area, some standing, engaging in market-related activities. A prominent display of watermelons is visible on a wooden stand in the mid-right. The main road, paved and appearing to have multiple lanes with a central divider, is visible in the background. Modern streetlights with dual fixtures line the road. Vehicles, including cars and a green tricycle (Keke Napep) with the text "PIA 84G" on its side, are present on or near the road. A person in a red shirt and jeans stands with their back to the camera, near the green tricycle. On the far right, a large metal structure, possibly a water tower or billboard frame, stands tall. The sky is hazy and light-colored. A partial view of a person in dark clothing, likely the photographer, is visible on the extreme left of the frame.
