Help Garba patch the roof before the rainy season
Garba, a disabled veteran, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Nnewi.
🇳🇬 Nnewi, Anambra, Nigeria180 views
I'm a disabled veteran living in Nnewi. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $550, 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

you're not alone, Garba. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
