How Nigeria's Spider-Man is fighting for a cleaner society - BBC Africa
Spider-Man, Spider-Man, does whatever a... street cleaner can?
According to The World Bank, waste generation rates are rising.
In 2016, the worlds’ cities generated over 2bn tonnes of solid waste, amounting to a footprint of 0.74 kilograms per person, per day.
Much of this waste ends up on streets, and Nigerian environmentalist Jonathan Olakunle dresses up as the Marvel Comics superhero Spider-Man to help clean up the Osogbo streets.
Produced, filmed and directed by Joshua Akinyemi
