Friendly visitor needed for a 78-year-old neighbor in Lagos

An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Efe is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Efe, who's 78. Efe lives alone in Lagos, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country. Efe loves chess, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Thursday 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. Glad we found this place.

    Hope it all works out. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I hope July is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Lagos.
