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

Looking for a friendly person in Asaba to visit Ifeoma once a week.

Asaba
I'm writing for my neighbor Ifeoma, who's 75. Ifeoma lives alone in Asaba, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country. Ifeoma loves local history, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Tuesday 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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
