This is to convey my appreciation to all my lenders for being part of the success story of my business. The loan is intended to complement the financial resources at hand to enable me stock more raw materials for an uninterrupted furniture production, this is because rising inflation in Nigeria affects the cos of materials and resulting in uncontrolled rise in material cost at the supply markets. Thanks you once again.

Victor    Apr 4, 2021

With the rising inflation in Nigeria, prices of material needed for our furniture work are continuously on the rise and sometimes the materials are not readily available. Stocking inventory has been a strategy I've employed to mitigate the effect of the inflation on my production. The last loan helped to achieving that successfully.

To all my LENDERS, I say thank you for being supportive towards the growth of my business and believing that I can. The loan will be additional funds to money I have to purchase MDF, HDF and MFC boards for furniture production. Thank you.

The last loan taken was to aid in the purchase of materials to stock up raw materials. As a result of the #endSars protest that took place in Nigeria, it affected the movement of good from the ports up Northern Nigeria, hence creating scarcity of raw materials. The step taken greatly had a positive impact on our production and timely delivery of finished products.

The COVID-19 Pandemic took a hard turn of a lot of business, mine wasn't an exception. However, business has bounced back and the Christmas season is bringing in more sales. This loan is intended to procure wood & boards, being raw materials for our works.

I called the applicant he said that he travelled yo his village for his uncle burial, and that there was no network in his village, but that he is going to make some repayment at the end of today

Business is yet to pick up well after the COVID 19 lockdown.

Okwukwe    Jul 1, 2020

The applicant phone number is switched off, so I called one of his references which happens to be his wife in the person of Patience Mshelia, and she told me that her husband went for burial at his village and that there is no network there, that when he comes back she will let him know zidisha called.

Due to the COVID 19 lockdown in Abuja, Nigeria, my sources of income were closed for 5 weeks and so had within the 5 weeks, remained without a source of income. Businesses are just got the nod to begin operations.

Benjamin    May 4, 2020

Victor apologized for the late repayments, says it was due to the outbreak, promises to make a full payments once its over

Victor    Apr 28, 2020

The COVID 19 Pandemic which resulted in the lockdown of offices and business and restriction on movements for the forth (4th) week running now in Nigeria's capital Abuja in the Federal Capital Territory, resulted in NO SALES or business transactions. This has caused untold negative impacts on my business and all sources of livelihood. I WILL STILL APPEAL WITH ZIDISHA TO CONSIDER THESE IMPACTS ON BUSINESSES AND SOURCES OF INCOME AND GIVE AT LEAST THE GRACE OF A MONTH. This plea is so because even if the restrictions on businesses and movements are lifted in a week from now, IMMEDIATE SALES OF GOODS AND SERVICES ARE NOT GUARANTEED TO BE IMMEDIATE. ZIDISHA as a lending platform MUST really consider the plight of its customers/clients, especially if their records are clear that prior to the COVID 19 pandemic, the customers have a good repayment record or the ZIDISHA standard of having 90% on-time repayment record. I look forward to positive and considerable responses from the ZIDISHA platform and LENDERS TOO.
Thank you.

Following the COVID-19 pandemic, certain measures taken by government has affected businesses and movements; those of us resident within Abuja in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) have restrictions on movement with instructions to stay indoors. Further more, I had earlier presented a Bank Cheque for clearing at my bank but was told that the Central bank of Nigeria (CBN) had suspended clearing of cheques hence my cheque cannot go through to the clearing house at the moment. While I am making efforts to see how I can raise money to follow through with my payments, I will plead for some little time and understanding from Zidisha. In the mean time, I have been forced to close down my business operations in compliance with the government directives to stay home to prevent spread of the COVID-19 and keep social distancing. Thank you.

Benjamin    Apr 3, 2020

Victor said his cheque was not cleared at the bank according to CBN directive. He said he is trying to source money from other places, that he needs a little time

Through Zidisha lenders, my business experienced about 14% increase in sales in the last 3 months.
This loan is purposed towards sustaining the continues growth by acquiring more working machines that will enhance quality of the work and timely delivery.
Thank you Paul Buchheit and Daniel Kalla for being supportive via the loan.

Victor    Mar 6, 2020

Zidisha loans through my LENDERS has really helped the growth of my business, having acquired some tools & machines which has really enhanced our production, quality of finishes and timely delivery. Our sales in the last 3 months indicates about 14% increase in sales. There is no stopping now, with more machines, I am optimistic that more can be achieved.
