A visual celebration of Nigeria's palm oil industry, often referred to as the 'red gold' of Africa. This project takes viewers on a journey through the entire production process, from the lush palm plantations to the traditional methods of oil extraction.
By documenting this vital industry, I highlight its significance to the Nigerian economy and the lives of those who depend on it, while also addressing the environmental and social issues associated with palm oil production.
