A ride from Kano to the capital for Lanre's new job

A ride and a few boxes: that's all that stands between Lanre and a new job.

I have been offered a job in the capital, starting on Thursday in March. I can't afford the bus and the 5 boxes I need to carry with me, and moving costs are beyond my means. If you or someone you know is driving between Kano and the capital, I'd love to share the journey, and I can cover fuel. If you have a van and a free day, even better. I'm a non-smoker with no pets. I have a reference from my last employer and from the person I'll be renting from in the capital. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

                          Hang in there. Hope you get there. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

                          • sending strength. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
