Get Chukwuemeka back on the road: my tuk-tuk repair fund
Without my tuk-tuk Chukwuemeka can't work; a $100 repair would put him back on the road.
🇳🇬 Nigeria933 views
I make my living with my tuk-tuk. 10 weeks ago the clutch assembly failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $100. 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 4 children. Before the breakdown I worked twelve 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 $100 goes:
• Labor charges: $25
• Towing and inspection: $15
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $60

Stay strong, Chukwuemeka. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Buffalo.
Sending love, Chukwuemeka. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up.
