Jumoke needs my food truck repaired to get back to work in Nsukka
Jumoke's my food truck is Jumoke's only source of income and needs an engine head gasket replacement costing $100.
🇳🇬 Nsukka, Enugu, Nigeria537 views
I make my living with my food truck. 10 weeks ago the engine head gasket 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 family of five. Before the breakdown I worked nine 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 $100 goes:
• Labor charges: $35
• Towing and inspection: $15
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $50
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Sending good thoughts, Jumoke. I hope things turn around soon. It's not much but it's yours
Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best!
Small businesses are the heart of Nsukka. Hope you're open again soon. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Jinja
Wishing you the best, Jumoke. Hope this works out for you. After 16 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Nsukka.
