An elevated view captures a vibrant street scene in Onitsha, Nigeria, with a large procession filling a paved road under bright sunlight. In the immediate foreground, a dark metal fence with ornate scrollwork and pointed finials is partially visible, featuring a white corrugated metal gate below it. Adjacent to the fence is a concrete pillar with exposed rebar on its top surface, and a broken concrete planter box containing soil and debris. A light blue corrugated metal roof structure is visible below the fence on the left. On the street, a dense crowd of people is present. A prominent group, centrally located, is dressed in matching red and cream/white robes, characteristic of a choir or ceremonial participants. Surrounding them are numerous individuals in various civilian attire. Several flags are held aloft within the crowd: one black, green, and red flag (resembling a Biafran flag), a yellow flag, and at least two plain white flags. A plume of white smoke emanates from within the central gathering, near the flags. Shadows of individuals and structures are cast on the road, indicating clear, sunny conditions. The street is bordered by various single and multi-story buildings with corrugated metal roofs and light-colored walls, some exhibiting signs of weathering. A sign reading "THE LORDS CHOIR" is affixed to one building. Further down the street, a blue arched banner displays partially legible text, including the words "ASSOCIATE" and "TRADITIONAL."
