Yard rescue for Queen, 83: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in Badagry: bring gloves and a rake.
🇳🇬 103095, Badagry, Lagos, Nigeria133 views
I'm 83 and I have lived in this house in Badagry for 43 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 poor eyesight.
The council has told me it will be ten 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
