About Me

I happened to do child labor as the only means to be able to get food. My father had many wifes and couldn't manage to provide for them all. The government started offering education for free in primary and secondary level giving me a chance to be educated. I started business to improve my living standards. My child want to be a teacher.

My Business

I work in the transport sector where I am a driver of a tax. I transport goods and people for short distances earning my daily livelihood. I chose this business because of the inadequacy of other people offering the same. Profit plays a major role including education and saving. This business has created employment to me and other young people out there.

Loan Proposal

I will use this loan to buy a spare wheel for my tax car. The spare wheel will cost about $240. The spare wheel will help me when I am in danger and the car is very far away from the mechanic. The business will boost efficiency and performance of the care. I will benefit buy reducing the expenditure on repair and time wasted.

    Hi lenders,
    I haven't been able to reach Gideon omwamba personally, but with the help of a neighbor finally I have reached him.
    The reason as to why he has paid his loan according to him is,, his babershop business didn't turn out as he expected, he has said he is trying his best to sort things out and start paying.
    I have requested if he can adjust his payment installment to amount that he is able to pay but he has insisted that the current installment is ok with him and he will start paying come date 13th may 2017.

    Hi lenders,
    After calling Gideon Omwamba have not reached him but with the help of family member by the name Lydia Ratemo have been able to reach him and talked to him about his loan which is currently overdue.
    He stated that he has not been able to pay her loan due to unavoidable circumstances which he has declined to share with me.
    I have then talked to her about benefits of paying her loan on time, like to grow trust with Zidisha and also to be able to apply bigger loan in future,
    I have then enquired if he is able to pay his loan and he said he is able to pay and he is going to start paying with the same installment amount from date 1st April 2017

    I will uy a new new wind screen and replace it with the current one which has cracks and poor visibility. This move will reduce the chances of getting involved in an road accident. Thank you Lenders for funding my loan.
