Yard rescue for Gbenga, 72: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Gbenga, 72, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.
🇳🇬 Kano, Kano, Nigeria935 views
I'm 72 and I have lived in this house in Kano for 26 years. After the storm in May, 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 arthritis.
The council has told me it will be eight weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: a small team to cut, stack and carry away branches. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
