Gas shut-off notice: help Samuel pay $150
Samuel is behind on gas bills after a reduction in hours and needs $150 to avoid a shut-off.
🇳🇬 Nigeria827 views
The gas account is 3 months behind. Samuel received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on June unless $150 is paid. He had never been late before a reduction in hours.
Samuel called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $25 first, which isn't available.
The household includes a newborn, and going through the rainy season without gas isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at home.
Samuel is working on getting back on his feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
Every dollar goes to the account in Samuel's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $150 goes:
• Heating arrears: $85
• Reconnection and late fees: $20
• Down payment on a payment plan: $45
Thank you for reading my story.

so sorry you're going through this. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Lagos
So sorry you're going through this, Dayo. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Stay strong. Hope this works out for you. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Take care.
Hang in there, Dayo. Hope you get there. Sent it to 27 people at work
Hope it all works out, Dayo. This could happen to any of us. Blessings
Praying for you. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Greetings from Hamilton
thanks for sharing this. Hope you get there. I'll check back for the next update. Thinking of Lagos
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Hyderabad.
Sending strength, Dayo. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Please keep us posted. Greetings from Minneapolis
Rooting for you, Dayo. Looking forward to the next update. It's not much but it's yours.
This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Ottawa so I could bring a meal.
Stay strong, Dayo. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'll check back for the next update
