This image depicts a large communal fishing event in Kokani North, Nigeria, occurring in a wide body of murky, brown water. Numerous individuals, predominantly men and boys with dark complexions, are partially submerged in the water, actively engaged in fishing. Many utilize large, round, brown calabash gourds as flotation devices or containers, pushing them through the water. Several individuals are seen deploying small, conical mesh fishing nets. Scattered within the water are also various debris and a few plastic containers, including a prominent yellow rectangular object. A large crowd of observers or additional participants lines the elevated, vegetated bank in the background, where green bushes are visible. On this bank, a white banner or sign featuring logos from organizations such as USAID, Mercy Corps, EU, Borno State, and UNDP is present. The sky above is clear and light, suggesting daytime conditions.
