Clear storm damage from Nneka's garden in Lagos
Garden rescue day in Lagos: bring gloves and a rake.
🇳🇬 100726, Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria609 views
I'm 83 and I have lived in this house in Lagos for 26 years. After the storm in March, 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 my hip replacement.
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: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thanks for sharing this. Wishing Nneka a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Blessings
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.
Take care. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.
Hope it all works out. I hope things turn around soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Lagos
thanks for sharing this. Hope you get there. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care.
Hope things get better soon. Hope this works out for you. Greetings from Contagem.
