Could you share an hour a week with Amaka?

Looking for a friendly person in Awka to visit Amaka once a week.

Awka
I'm writing for my neighbor Amaka, who's 93. Amaka lives alone in Awka, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Amaka loves cricket, 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. I hope life is good to you.
