A young boy stands on a dirt and asphalt road in what appears to be Markurdi, Nigeria. He wears a green and gold striped shirt, black shorts, and black shoes, and has a white bandage or wrap on his left knee. In his right hand, he holds a white string. He looks to his right. A silver minivan is parked to his right. Behind the boy and minivan, a red "SLOW DOWN" stop sign is visible. In the background, two men ride motorcycles on the road, and buildings are visible along the street. Overhead power lines extend across the scene.
