In Jos, Nigeria, a young boy, approximately 5-8 years old, is depicted squatting on a sandy-grey asphalt or concrete surface. He wears a purple, long-sleeved traditional Nigerian garment with a checkered pattern and black sandals. The boy is actively engaged in roasting corn cobs on a square metal grate placed over glowing charcoal embers. Two partially roasted corn cobs lie on the grill beneath his left hand, which is open and positioned above them. His right hand holds a light-colored, rectangular object, possibly a turning tool, near another roasted corn cob. To the boy's left, a white plastic bucket holds several unroasted corn cobs. Adjacent to the bucket, a black plastic bag, likely containing charcoal, rests on the ground. The immediate background features a reddish-brown metal gate or door frame against a dirty, moss-covered concrete wall.
