Under a bridge in Obalende, Lagos. A bustling place with little shops and people buying and selling basic wares.

Under a bridge in Obalende, Lagos state. This scene used to be a typical scene under most bridges in Lagos until the government started a clean up in 2002/2003. Because of the bus terminals located near the bridges a lot of shanty shops selling food and basic ware were set up to cater to the many travelers passing through. There is also a big gutter under this particular bridge that acts as drainage. This is sometimes used as a dump for rubbish. Taken 2001
