Noise pollution...

One good way of knowing when light is back is hearing the loud speakers outside my window – its all in another tongue so I’m not sure whether they are selling Hausa politics, Islamic prayer or juju medicine. Whichever there is no concept of noise pollution in Nigeria – from all night Christian vigils to first call to prayer at 4am, life is always buzzing loudly in the distance.
