A weekly visit for Wunmi, 82, who lives alone in Abuja

Wunmi lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Wunmi, who's 82. Wunmi lives alone in Abuja, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Wunmi loves cricket, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Thursday 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. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

  • hang in there. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. All the best.

    • Wishing you the best. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Put this on a community board in Caruaru this morning. Thinking of Abuja.

      • Looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Pune so I could bring a meal

        • praying for you. Get well soon. Blessings
