Yard rescue for Amaka, 89: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Amaka, 89, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.
🇳🇬 Onitsha, Anambra, Nigeria380 views
I'm 89 and I have lived in this house in Onitsha for 37 years. After the storm in February, 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: someone with a chainsaw, plus a few people with rakes and gloves. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Thank you so much.

Hope things get better soon, Amaka. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I have a 11 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Good luck, Amaka. Shared this with my family. Take care.
