Friendly visitor needed for an 83-year-old neighbor in Kano

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

I'm writing for my neighbor Kelechi, who's 83. Kelechi lives alone in Kano, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away. Kelechi loves birdwatching, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Wednesday 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. Thanks for being kind about this.

  • Wishing you the best, Funmilayo. Shared this with my family. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Indore.
