Guest housing

Bath tub with a shower. We learned to keep the bucket full so when there was no water we were still able to wash.

The summer is the rainy season in Nigeria.

 

Fútball game.
Jos "Plateau United" played Ibadan "Shooting Stars"

 

 

There is no time clock and the score is put up manually. Trumpets and drums played the same tune throughout the whole game.

The middle of the stands is the VIP section. It has a fence separting it from the rest of the fans.

 

The President of the General Assembly was sitting behind us in the VIP section. The "big men" have upholstered chairs to sit in while watching the game.

Children that can't afford a ticket climb the poles outside the stadium to watch the game. They stay there the entire game.
