Elaborate costumes, blaring music, and vibrant processions took over Nigeria's Lagos Island on Monday as the annual Fanti Carnival celebrated its Afro-Brazilian roots. Meanwhile, Easter processions across Lagos this year resonated more deeply as participants grappled with rising prices and job insecurity.
