    Dear Lenders,
    I have contacted Jared in efforts to establish why he is yet to start repaying his loan. He has informed me that business has been down for sometime but now things are looking promising and he will make his first repayment by Sunday this week.

    I am sad to reduce the amount i am supposed to pay.The reason is,my cow,which was giving milk,passed on due to 'Footh&Mouth' disease!Its really paining me.
