An image captured in Zango-ndaji, Nigeria, depicts a young female child standing on a dirt ground in what appears to be an outdoor, unpaved area. The child, approximately pre-teen, has dark skin and short, dark, natural hair, looking directly at the camera with a neutral expression. She wears a light blue long-sleeved t-shirt with an indistinct graphic on the front, a multicolored patterned wrap skirt (wrapper) featuring green, red, and black geometric designs, and dark green slide sandals. A thin, silver-colored chain is visible around her neck. Her right hand is slightly open, holding a small, dark, irregular object, while her left hand rests near her side. The ground surface is uneven, reddish-brown earth, significantly littered with various debris including crumpled plastic bags (white, clear, black, purple), small stones, fragments of metallic foil, and dried organic matter. A small white plastic stool is partially visible in the bottom right foreground. In the background, to the left of the child, a weathered corrugated metal structure, likely a fence or wall, stands on a raised concrete base. Behind the child and to the right, a light-colored concrete or stucco wall exhibits cracks, dark stains, and faint, unidentifiable scribbles. A vertical grey PVC pipe runs down this wall. To the far right, a dark brown door or shutter with vertical panels is partially visible. Strong sunlight illuminates the scene, casting distinct shadows on the wall and ground.
