About Me

My name is Muswangeli Tongo Chibaba and the first born from the family of 4.My mother being Mr and Mrs Francis Chibaba.My education back ground, i went to Nyenyenzi Primary school and later i was selected to grade 8 at David Kaunda Secondary School.When i completed school my uncle employed me to work at his Farm.From there i was able to learn farming and how to do farming business.My uncle taught me business at his farm.

My Business

I grow tomatoes, cabbages, Onions and sweet potatoes and also i ran bottle store were my generate my sources of my income.The goods are highly on demand by marketeers and they sell faster and i make quick money, the income i make i use it to pay school fees, reinvest and home improvement.

Loan Proposal

This time around I want to use the loan to some pesticides, weed killer and herbicides because the maize in field is grown very well and the vegetable besides the maize. I want to produce a good crop yield and a good harvest for 2020 to 2021 marketing season. The maize is almost rip and this is the time when dangerous pests invade the crops, I want to buy these pesticides and weed killer to avoid these dangerous insect from attacking the crops. When you have a good production you are rest assured of good profits.

Income Source

Risks are there especially during this second wave Covid 19, but I have diversified into many businesses, I have poultry were I rare broiler and layer chickens for sale. Right now am selling the broiler chickens .Apart from that I have also a mini mart or shop and I make daily income which I save for reinvestment. From the daily I generate I will strategize to repay my loan in the coming weeks.

      Hi Muswangeli,

      Thank God you are fit and healthy now. Being fit and healthy now, kindly start the repayment so as to continue enjoying the good things in the Zidisha community. For now borrowers are no longer paying credit risk fee and you can choose to be lender/supporter/backer and a borrower as well.
      Thank you, and I wish you good luck.
