Hauwa's my pickup is Hauwa's only source of income and needs an engine head gasket replacement costing $250.

I make my living with my pickup. 5 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $250. 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 two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked ten 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $250 goes:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $40
• Labor charges: $40
• engine head gasket replacement (parts): $170
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

So sorry you're going through this, Hauwa. Small businesses are the heart of Gwagwalada. Hope you're open again soon. God bless!
Keep going. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care
Thinking of you and your family, Hauwa. Small businesses are the heart of Gwagwalada. Hope you're open again soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Blessings.
