As part of my series, I wanted to add an image that epitomized Nigeria's current times. the vines climbing up the sides of this building tell us a story of yet another dream forced to come to a halt due to the country's present economic crisis. In this harsh reality, the sight of it spawns both grief and hope, as this structure, declares "I'm not done yet".

The Deserted

The ancient, monolithic presence of a great rock looms in the hazy distance, a silent witness to the bustling roadside life below. This image captures the striking juxtaposition of 'Another Nigeria', where the timeless geography of the land meets the modern-day hustle of commerce and daily commutes. It’s a narrative of endurance and aspiration, played out under the watchful eye of an immovable landmark (Zuma Rock)

Under the Watchful Eye (Zuma Rock)

A group of boys work tirelessly to de-husk rice grains from the plant . Most of the rice farmed by local farmers is processed in this manner which is labor intensive, time consuming and inefficient.

Egbiameje Omole performs Pankere in Glitter, a work confronting the traumatic and emotional stakes faced by non-binary and queer people in Nigeria under hostile legal and social regimes. In Yoruba, pankere refers to the cane once used by guarantors to discipline children, a symbol of the violence and regulation imposed on queer bodies from childhood through adulthood. Omole’s performance reclaims this memory, transforming it into a spectacle of resilience. By drawing on the legacy of cross-dressing and queer icons of the past, the work resists erasure and insists on presence. Captured on a mist-covered hill, their red, glittering outfit vibrates against the muted landscape. The movement appears frantic, almost ritualistic, an act of defiance against invisibility, a demand for recognition. This image embodies the weight of law on queer lives in Nigeria while celebrating the persistence of joy, survival, and visibility against the forces that seek to constrain them.

The risks we take

What makes the Street photography so special is how photographers are able to capture rare, unplanned moments, and this picture the perfect example of that. I was crossing a bridge when this man's car broke down in the middle of the road. I stopped to observe what was going on, and while observing, I was able to capture this.
