For those who have never been to benin city,
the capital of Edo state in Nigeria, you may not
be very familiar with the second hand goods
market, however it is a thriving center of
commerce where people of all walks of life
troop to. Popularly called aloko, bend down
and ogbele, these clothes are highly sought
after especially among the female folk who
take advantage of the cheaper prices to look
cool and chick. Yours faithfully was there on a
fact finding mission and presents you these
pictures. NB- I came close to being lynched
when the customers found out i was taking
pictures as the consumers like their secrecy.
Thumbs up to my guardian angel for a timely
intervention. see more photos here.
