The scene depicts an active construction site in Markurdi, Nigeria, under a hazy sky. In the foreground, the left side shows a partial view of a person wearing an orange top. Central to the image, a male worker with dark skin, wearing a blue cap, light pink shirt, and dark shorts, is bent over, actively placing a grey hollow-core concrete block onto a partially constructed wall. To his right, a black bucket containing mortar is visible, alongside a trowel and another small tool resting on a concrete block. Further back and to the right, a second male worker, also with dark skin and wearing a patterned orange/brown long-sleeved shirt, is similarly engaged in laying concrete blocks on a parallel wall. Both walls feature a black pipe running horizontally along their upper course. The ground within the construction area is sandy. In the midground, a perimeter wall of grey concrete blocks is visible, behind which dry grasses and weeds grow. The background features several residential buildings; most prominently, a white house with a dark green, multi-peaked roof. To the far right, a large pile of aggregate and a utility pylon are visible.
