My delivery van: Uche's only way to earn a living
Without my delivery van Uche can't work; a $200 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my delivery van. 8 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $200. 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 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $200 goes:
• suspension replacement (parts): $120
• Towing and inspection: $10
• Labor charges: $70
Every share and every dollar helps.

Rooting for you, Uche. Small businesses are the heart of Port Harcourt. Hope you're open again soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless.
Small businesses are the heart of Port Harcourt. Hope you're open again soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
Shared this with my family. I have a 13 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Port Harcourt
praying for you, Uche. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Take care.
