Paul needs my delivery van repaired to get back to work in Gwagwalada
Paul's my delivery van is Paul's only source of income and needs a gearbox replacement costing $100.
🇳🇬 Abuja FCT, Nigeria308 views
I make my living with my delivery van. 5 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 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.
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: $40
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $35
• Towing and inspection: $25
Thanks for being kind about this.
