    hey, hoping you are all well, i would like to reschedule my loan repayment because the kiosk i was operating was hit by thugs who stole all the stock which i had purchased, that's why i had some difficulties in repaying but i hope i will manage to get back on track. however i have managed to purchase a few things and the business is almost back on its feet. i send my sincere apologies to zidisha team for failing to honor the weekly payment amount. consequently today 17th august i sent ksh 2000 and i promise i will always be paying on time. thanks for your generous assistance which is helping us change our life.

      thanks Scwerbelastung for funding my loan to be honest i wish there is a way of changing what i have been given as my budget was $445 but i only managed to get $231 which is half of what i had applied for. i had to adjust the figure to $231 as the loan was expiring for a second time and i was in great need to add more stock to my kiosk which was in bad shape. any way thanks once again

      hi Cricketa thanks for keeping your promise, my loan was funded after a long struggle as i had applied for $445 and the loan was expiring for a second time after it was raised to $231 so i updated the loan just a few minutes before it expired.
