See, these pictures will tell you two things. One, not all famous people were as adorable and hot as they are now – no one is. And two, hard work pays.

What do you think of these throwback photos?
Over the past decade, whenever a news story on Northern Nigeria is released, it almost always features images of Boko Haram’s destruction or images highlighting poverty and extremity. But there is so much beauty that the media just doesn’t show us and these images captured by Editi Effiòng prove that Northern Nigeria just might be the most underrated tourist location for travel lovers. Check out some of Editi’s shots below.
The absolute beauty of Gubi Lake in Bauchi.

This perfect picture of the game trail at Yankari National Park that captured butterflies basking in the sunlight.

This picture taken underwater at the Wikki warm spring that shows it’s possible for Nigerian waters to be clean, clear and blue.

This serene shot of Wikki warm spring.

Blue sky and blue water at Gubi lake in Bauchi.

The heart-stopping sunset in Bauchi.

This image that captures the true definition of untamed wild beauty.
