Hello distinguished lenders, Good evening,afternoon, and morning to you all depending on your location.

It's obvious I'm in arrears of two installment with a total figure of GHS 200.00.

I have a little challenge with cash for this past few weeks and that's why I have not been able to make repayment.

I would like to assure all lenders that, this is not total negligence on my part but rather the recent financial constrain faced. I will pay everything arrears in the few weeks to come. I hope this message calms you.

I share Zidisha's vision, I'm a credible member and wish to maintain my credibility established in the past; I can't afford to ruin that.

Thank you

Hi Olumide, just thought I'd pop a quick suggestion your way :-)

Have you possibly thought of offering solar cooking instead of gas? You could maybe sell them a kit (that tends to cost about $3 to $7 like CooKit), or could even make your own, from cardboard & foil...

This might help: solarcooking.fandom.com/wik...

Wishing you all the best with your endeavours :-)
