Titilayo needs my delivery van repaired to get back to work in Lagos
Titilayo's my delivery van is Titilayo's only source of income and needs a suspension replacement costing $100.
🇳🇬 Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria1,834 views
I make my living with my delivery van. 4 weeks ago the suspension 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 younger brothers and sisters. Before the breakdown I worked ten 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.
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:
• Towing and inspection: $15
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $20
• Labor charges: $65

67% there. I made the first payment toward road tax and insurance renewal. Thank you.
Thank you all. We're at 37% now ($37). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for towing and inspection is now scheduled.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($30 in total) the plan for towing and inspection is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

Sending good thoughts, Titilayo. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I hope October is when things finally get easier.
Thanks for sharing this, Titilayo. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Hamburg this morning
