Companionship wanted: Zainab's opera and a cup of tea

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

Ogbomosho
I'm writing for my neighbor Zainab, who's 77. Zainab lives alone in Ogbomosho, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives 609 kilometers away. Zainab loves opera, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Monday 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
