Help Fatima replace the gearbox and return to work
Fatima drives for a living in Wudil, and a broken gearbox has stopped all income for 4 weeks.
🇳🇬 Wudil, Kano, Nigeria363 views
I make my living with my delivery van. 4 weeks ago the gearbox 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.
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: $50
• Towing and inspection: $20
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $30
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Thinking of you and your family. Hope the shop reopens soon. Sent it to 5 people at work. Take care
Best of luck, Fatima. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up
So sorry you're going through this, Fatima. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't give up. God bless
Rooting for you, Fatima. Hope you get there. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Wudil.
