Companionship wanted: Bola's birdwatching and a cup of tea
Looking for a friendly person in Lagos to visit Bola once a week.
🇳🇬 Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria531 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Bola, who's 83. Bola lives alone in Lagos, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives 843 kilometers away.
Bola loves birdwatching, 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.
Thank you so much.

everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Bonny.
good luck, Michael. Shared it with a few friends. God bless
Sending good thoughts, Michael. Get well soon. I hope October is when things finally get easier. God bless.
gave what I could, wish it was more. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Oaxaca de Juárez
