Gas fitter needed urgently: Abubakar's home isn't safe
Looking for a licensed gas fitter in Ibadan to donate time or work at cost.
Anywhere in the world369 views
In June an inspector told me that my home has a failed boiler with no heating. It's a safety risk for me and my elderly mother. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $145 are beyond us.
I'm looking for a licensed gas fitter who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $40.
The job should take about eight 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 a gas fitter and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Paarl but we're thinking of you
Take care. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Put this on a community board in Stellenbosch this morning. All the best
Wishing you the best, Abubakar. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope September is when things finally get easier.
Good luck, Abubakar. Hope this works out for you. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Ibadan.
