Adoyi, popularly known as Dr West was an energetic street boy who grew up in the old town of Otukpo, Benue state, Nigeria. Himself and my friend and colleague BUZU grew in the town, apparently from the same street.
As boyhood friends who were also famous while growing up, made their way to the township square's basketball court, where they became more famous for there dribbling, agility, acrobatic ability and greatest fames they have where they still hold the records till date is their SLAM DUNK show off. From the early 90's through to late millennium, they these guys grew from boyhood to legends of the game in the town.
Forward to 2017, Adoyi was based in Liverpool city, UK. He was about to get married and he called from Pre-wedding photoshoot. Now haven known his personality to some extent, being a lover of culture, adventurous, Energetic and not leaving behind his Legendary skills in basketball.
He came up with some ideas which i have to work around with and get photo concept that could speak about them meaningfully.
We eventually did a tour of the state by the time was in Nigeria for the shoot, we got the local settlement for local lovers stories and the ancient OTUKPO RICE MEAL that was the major rice supply of the nation Nigeria in the 80's and 90's and of course, the community basketball where the legend was made, but this time with his bride.
The legends made their way to the arena to see if Dr West could still fly and Dunk as he was known to, but his bride would be so afraid to see a man lifting to such heights. Yes Adoyi is the king of Otukpo Dunk, he still got it.
Meet Adoyi and Eboh's Pre-wedding, my entry for today's #monomad challenge.
