A weekly visit for Abubakar, 82, who lives alone in Kano
Looking for a friendly person in Kano to visit Abubakar once a week.
🇳🇬 Kano, Kano, Nigeria992 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Abubakar, who's 82. Abubakar lives alone in Kano, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Abubakar loves gardening, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Tuesday afternoon, would mean the world. We can also arrange a phone call if you can't visit in person.
All visitors will be introduced by me and I'll be there at the first meeting. I'll share references and, if you'd like, a short orientation from the local befriending charity.
No special skills are needed - just kindness and patience.
Glad we found this place.

Praying for you. I hope things turn around soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
