The Fish Statue, Epe, Landmark statue at Abraham Adesanya roundabout in Epe, Nigeria

Two large fish sculptures mounted on a rectangular base display the word EPE on the side, marking the entrance to the coastal town.

The Lagos State Government installed this monument in 1997 to celebrate the maritime heritage and fishing industry of the Epe community.

Named Mutum-mutumin Kifi in Hausa language, this statue represents the primary economic activity of local residents who depend on fishing for their livelihood.

Visitors can find the statue at the Lekki-Epe T-Junction, where it serves as a central reference point for navigating the surrounding area.

Local artisans gather near the monument to sell handmade products inspired by the fishing traditions of the Nigerian coastal communities.
