Nigeria is so often framed through its problems — and those problems are real and deserve serious attention.
But I want to collect something different today.
Tell me the moment you did not expect. The view that stopped you. The stranger who was unreasonably kind. The food that made you close your eyes. The community that should not work but somehow does.
I will start: watching fishermen on the Niger at sunrise near Lokoja. The light on that water. The absolute quiet. The way they moved with a confidence that made me understand that peace is a practice, not a location.
Your turn.
