Yard rescue for Obiageli, 79: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in Awka: bring gloves and a rake.
🇳🇬 420171, Awka, Anambra, Nigeria949 views
I'm 79 and I have lived in this house in Awka for 30 years. After the storm in December, 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 heart condition.
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: 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Thinking of you and your family, Obiageli. I hope things turn around soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Hope you get there. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Fukuoka.
Best of luck, Obiageli. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest!
Sending strength, Obiageli. Shared this with my family. God bless
Sending love. Wishing Obiageli a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
