With the rainy season due in the next 2 to 3 weeks, I need some additional funding to buy more seeds to supplement the ones I have to be ready for planting.

From my entertainment business, I will be able to raise enough cash every week to pay the loan on time. Thanks

Hi Zidisha community, please do not get tired by me reducing installment every time, its all about how things are here business wise. I can say things are improving though because most of the debts including school fees for my children are now cleared. This arose after i went through a hard period when my son had developed a health issue. I'm can now say he is not again in and out of hospital and as a result i thank God. I must also appreciate the fact that though i have skipped a number of installments i can see the finishing line. Thank you for being there for those who really need the help.

I added some weights in my gym

Through this job, i've also been able to make some savings which i use to visit children's home and give my donation. I'm more than grateful for all the help that has been extended to me.

Thank you lender i want this loan to buy materials and machines to help me supply a 4000 uniform to school children in the Yendi Municipality and its surrounding villages, this contract was awarded to me due to the number of girl child trained in tailoring and how it helps reduce girls marrying at young age without having any hand work, which affects their married homes because they are always dependents to their husbands.

I really appreciate for everything and I will still be truthful to u

Dear Lenders,
Thank you so much for your patience and tolerance. I have not performed well in the current loan due to the many detbs accrued from the medical bill I had few months ago. I thank God that I have managed to settle all those debts and am now stable. My doctor has been very understanding, he put the life of the baby first and may God bless his hands. I can now embark on my dreams and visions for my business. Since I had to spend the loan on medical bills, I still in need of the color printers. I will therefore work hard to clear my loan and get the next one to buy the printers and even expand my office as it has become small due to the influx of customers and growing income. It has now become an office and not a kiosk as it started. Thank you so much for making my dreams come true. May God bless you abundantly
