Jola Naibi

Writer and amateur photog. I seek to inspire and inform with the words I write and share and the photos I take. I have written a book of short stories: Terra Cotta Beauty, and I am working on a lot more. Reading and writing fuel my energy. In reading, I explore this vast and diverse world, in writing, I employ my over-active imagination and address the 'what-if' questions that life often throws at us.

A Tree Grows from Concrete

I saw this curious-looking tree a few years ago in a neighborhood in Lagos. The gardener in me wondered how it gets watered as from the look of it, it seems to be completely embedded in the concrete floor.
