Help Ifeanyi patch the roof before the rainy season
Ifeanyi, a night-shift nurse, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Ikeja.

I'm a night-shift nurse living in Ikeja. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $380, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the roofing sheets and nails. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for three or four volunteers who can help over two Saturdays.
Experience helps, but it isn't essential - I'll have a licensed roofer supervising for safety. All you need is work boots and a hat. 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

hang in there. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps!
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I hope August is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Ikeja.
