Electrician needed urgently: Henok's home isn't safe
Looking for a licensed electrician in Jimma to donate time or work at cost.

In August an inspector told me that my home has faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning. It's a safety risk for me and my three children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $170 are beyond us.
I'm looking for a licensed electrician who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $25.
The job should take about four hours. I'll make sure someone is home and will provide refreshments. I can share the inspector's written report on request.
If you're an electrician and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
Glad we found this place.

Sending strength. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best.
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from La Plata.
everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 10 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Stay strong, Henok. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier
