My ride-share car: Wafula's only way to earn a living

Without my ride-share car Wafula can't work; a $205 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my ride-share car. 8 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $205. 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 younger brothers and sisters. Before the breakdown I worked eleven hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next three 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 $205 goes: • gearbox replacement (parts): $90 • Labor charges: $50 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $60 • Towing and inspection: $5 Thanks for reading all this.
