Moving day volunteers: Obiageli's family relocating in Lagos
A short, concrete way to help: a few hours of lifting and loading in Lagos.
🇳🇬 Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria163 views
After the rent increase, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Lagos, and the lease starts on Friday. I have my elderly father, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for four volunteers for about six hours. If you have a van or pickup, that would help enormously - I'll cover fuel.
The old place is on the third floor with no elevator and the new place has just one flight of stairs. We'll do it in two trips. Lunch and cold drinks are on me.
I know this is a lot to ask of strangers. I'd be happy to share references from my landlord and my employer.
Thank you for reading my story.

keep going. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best
So sorry you're going through this. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My neighbor in Lagos donated after I showed her your page.
Hope things get better soon, Obiageli. Hope you get there. Thinking of Lagos.
Good luck, Obiageli. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Thane.
Sending good thoughts, Obiageli. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Sent it to 15 people at work. Take care.
Sending love. I hope things turn around soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust
