About Me

My name is Silue Jonathan, I have been living in the town of Tamale since my birth. Life has never been easy for me as I always do hard work to ensure my daily meal. So, I have done jobs as a bricklayer aide, street cigarette vendor, shop clerk etc ...
All this professional experience did not bring me any money except the simple fact of eating only. But with great courage, I always kept working for my survival. My parents have been unemployed for a very long time because my father was a chauffeur and my housewife mother. Since the vehicle that my daddy was driving broke down, his boss could not repair it. And it is since that time that the problems began.

My Business

After trying to work in many areas without success, now I dig holes for the national water distribution company. I am paying 30GHS a day but the job is very difficult as I eat a lot to be physically fit to do the job. When there is no work with this company, I work in new houses because they need to dig holes for the toilet. With them, I make the bill according to the depth of the hole. It is true that the work is difficult but I can pay the things I need. If I had this money, I will buy picks for my work.

Loan Proposal

Thank you to all the lenders because they allowed me to have a bike to move easily. This bike also allows me to get to work without tiring too much. Often I have a lot of work and I have to ask other people to help me. That's why I ask this loan to buy equipment for these people. I'll buy shovels. If the rest of the money allows me, I will buy a wheelbarrow. It's two people that want to work with me. They will receive a daily salary of $ 2 each. This new system will increase my income.
