Friendly visitor needed for a 93-year-old neighbor in Jimma

Looking for a friendly person in Jimma to visit Konjit once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Konjit, who's 93. Konjit lives alone in Jimma, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away. Konjit loves birdwatching, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Saturday 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. Thank you for reading my story.
