Companionship wanted: Chiamaka's local history and a cup of tea

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

I'm writing for my neighbor Chiamaka, who's 86. Chiamaka lives alone in Abuja, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country. Chiamaka loves local history, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Friday 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. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
