A day in the garden: help Oluwaseun in Ibadan
Oluwaseun, 73, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we are looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.
🇳🇬 Ibadan, Oyo, Nigeria840 views
I'm 73 and I have lived in this house in Ibadan for 31 years. After the storm in June, two large branches and a fallen fence have blocked the back door and the garden path. I can no longer manage them myself because of poor eyesight.
The council has told me it will be six weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: someone with a chainsaw, plus a few people with rakes and gloves. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Hang in there. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Semarang
You're not alone, Oluwaseun. Shared it with a few friends. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Zaria.
Thinking of you. Looking forward to the next update. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Take care
