Godwin needs my pickup repaired to get back to work in Abuja
Godwin's my pickup is Godwin's only source of income and needs a radiator and cooling system replacement costing $100.
🇳🇬 Abuja FCT, Nigeria1,386 views
I make my living with my pickup. 8 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system 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 wife and our newborn. Before the breakdown I worked eleven hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next six months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $100 goes:
• Labor charges: $55
• Towing and inspection: $10
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $35
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Thanks for sharing this. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Abuja
hope the shop reopens soon. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Godwin!
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. labor charges comes first ($55) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks for asking.
Hope it all works out. I hope things turn around soon. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Best of luck, Godwin. Your post was clear and honest.
best of luck, Godwin. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Take care.
