“wakabout, wetin u need eh?

u say na money u waka u dey find”

Mad Man Jaga

 

wakabout happens in “no man’s land”; a planned city orchestrated in the wake of displacement and destruction, even death.

when walking is a means of survival, wakabout means to move out of place—a spatial bid for freedom and bodily autonomy in the face of hegemonic urban structures.

city as plan and city in motion, on paper and in construction.
