A day in the garden: help Yakubu in Port Harcourt
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Yakubu's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇳🇬 Port Harcourt, Rivers, Nigeria327 views
I'm 86 and I have lived in this house in Port Harcourt for 26 years. After the storm in July, 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 twelve 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.
