I decided to take a walk to a nearby settlement call (oke ayo) the village is very close to a very big mountain and just because of the mountain the village was named after the mountain ,(oke ayo) means a mountain of happiness and also some decided to name their street with this same orientation for example this particular Street

Some villagers became miners and earn money from working on this mountain

,this mountain has served as source of income to many in the village as I was walking I saw some men and women working on the mountain braking some granite

I decided to interview some of the workers and I was told that some people have been working on the mountain for years and they see it as a source of income they will brake some granite and sell to buyers or construction company that needs it what a lovely place to visit like the name implies a mountain of happiness maybe it was because of the money they are realising from the mountain result to the said name ,
I walk around the mountain and took some shots

Nice to have you join again
Mining granite must be hard work I would imagine

Thanks for joining Wednesday Walk :), I truly enjoy exploring the world virtually each Wednesday seeing walks from all around the globe and feeling I am there and experiencing it all myself, such as I did in your post just now :)
