Get Blessing back on the road: my motorbike repair fund
Blessing's my motorbike is Blessing's only source of income and needs an engine head gasket replacement costing $200.
🇳🇬 Nigeria773 views
I make my living with my motorbike. 7 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $200. Without the vehicle I earn nothing.
I have been borrowing from friends to pay rent, and now I have run out of people to ask.
I support my family of five. Before the breakdown I worked eleven hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next four months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $200 goes:
• engine head gasket replacement (parts): $130
• Labor charges: $15
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $30
• Towing and inspection: $25
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
