Volunteers wanted: Efe's yard after the storm
Garden rescue day in Ikeja: bring gloves and a rake.
🇳🇬 Ikeja, Lagos, Nigeria450 views
I'm 86 and I have lived in this house in Ikeja for 36 years. After the storm in July, two large branches and a fallen fence have blocked the back door and the garden path. I can no longer manage them myself because of a recent fall.
The council has told me it will be twelve weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Hang in there. Hope the doctors have good news. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Blessings.
Sending strength. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Ikeja.
Thinking of you and your family, Efe. Hope you get there. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless.
Wishing Efe a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't be hard on yourself for asking!
Hang in there. Hope the doctors have good news. Love from Chiang Mai.
