The image depicts an outdoor ceremonial event taking place on a muddy, reddish-brown dirt ground with visible puddles, indicative of recent precipitation, located in Akwanga, Nigeria. Six young individuals, appearing to be children or adolescents, form a line in the foreground. They are uniformly attired in olive green short-sleeved shirts, matching long trousers, and green berets with a red and light blue/green plume. Each wears white gloves. The three individuals on the left hold prop rifles horizontally across their chests, while the three on the right hold similar prop rifles vertically, with the butt resting on the ground. Their footwear includes a mix of black boots, black shoes, and dark athletic sneakers. In the mid-ground and background, a large crowd of spectators is present, many holding open umbrellas. A male spectator wearing a blue and white polo shirt featuring a Nigerian flag emblem and a blue baseball cap stands behind the main group. A basketball hoop with a backboard is visible in the background, suggesting the event is taking place on a sports field or community ground.
