Yard rescue for Nneka, 91: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Nneka, 91, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.
🇳🇬 Nsukka, Enugu, Nigeria213 views
I'm 91 and I have lived in this house in Nsukka for 28 years. After the storm in August, 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: 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
