True neighbourhoods are like families. During the border war between Ethiopia and Eritrea 20 years ago, many lost their homes.

Megebe Temesgen had to leave her home and friends behind because she was Eritrean in Ethiopia. Her neighbour, Shasitu Nigusse, had to help her look after the home and everything she had in it.

During Megebe's absence, Shasitu rented out the apartment and kept the money for her for two decades.

Whenever local administration officers came around to make enquiries about the house, she always stood in for her.

Megede was only able to return to her home in Ethiopia 20 years after peace had been restored and the borders were reopened. In an interview with the BBC, the Eritrean said she was deeply moved by her neighbour's kind act.
