'Nigeria' Facts: T.B.D.
Photo 1. The harmattan mid day sunshine doesn't get brighter than this! Visibility poor for those constantly on the highway, helicopter crash was reported that day, flu also o the increase this season...haaa but good ones the mosquitoes are not so many this season :)
ReplyDeletePhoto 2: Garbage gets dumped anywhere no one will say " NO REFUSE HERE N5,000 fine and you will be punished...etc so this fine green area between three small villages will strive with polythene garbage bags and toxic waste as recycling refuse is not in full swing in Nigeria....heck its non existent except when scavengers hunt for what they may find useful from rubbish piles...most time everything gets burnt together degradable and non degradable so the soil, the flora. fauna and the air gets polluted :(
