I met this Olajide at an event in Dundalk that I was covering as a reporter.
It was the end of a programme organised to give asylum seekers living in Direct Provision the opportunity to come together and cook dishes from their native countries, as those being accommodated in hotels can't cook their own meals.
There was a wonderful display of tasty food cooked by chefs from Palestine, Nigeria and Bangladesh.
As I was leaving, Olajide, who was taking photos of the event, asked if he could take my photo. I agreed and then asked him if I could take his for my 100 Hundred Strangers project.
He's originally from Nigeria and is very interested in photography. He has been living in Direct Provision in Dundalk for the past seven months. For the Taste of Togetherness project he cooked an African dish of beans and spices mixed with plantain and a lamb stew.
