Volunteer drivers wanted: Yakubu's dialysis appointments
Yakubu needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.
🇳🇬 Gwagwalada, Abuja FCT, Nigeria586 views
Yakubu has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to the Gwagwalada Dialysis Unit alone. After surgery on their hand, Yakubu can no longer drive. Taxis cost more than the family can pay three times a week.
We're building a rota of volunteer drivers. Each session is 3 hours, including the trip there and back; most volunteers take one regular day. The journey is about 14 km each way.
Yakubu is cheerful company. You'd need a car in good condition and a clean driving record. We'll cover your fuel costs, and the family will send you home with homemade food.
Please say which day works for you in the comments.
Thank you for reading my story.

I hope things turn around soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Gwagwalada
Best of luck, Uchenna. Your post was clear and honest. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. God bless.
I hope things turn around soon. Sent it to 30 people at work. God bless.
