Companionship wanted: Amaka's local history and a cup of tea
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Amaka is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Amaka, who's 81. Amaka lives alone in Badagry, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Amaka loves local history, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Saturday 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Wishing you the best. Wishing Amaka a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Jinja.
