Abosede, a retired bus driver, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Ikeja.

I'm a retired bus driver living in Ikeja. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $370, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the corrugated iron sheets and timber. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for anyone handy who can help over a weekend.
Experience helps, but it isn't essential - I'll have a licensed roofer supervising for safety. All you need is sturdy shoes, gloves and a willingness to work. I'll provide lunch, water and lots of thanks.
The work will be done on the ground and roof with proper harnesses. If you can only help for a few hours, that's welcome too.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

You're not alone, Abosede. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
