    well it hasn't been easy, i started with Beans, at some point ventured into kola nuts, made some losses, and was able to catch up again. At a point i thought it was not going to work but thank God put in extra efforts, went the extra mile of collecting extra goods and paying back after sales. Today i am so happy cos i can also give out commodities to smaller traders and wait for them to bring payments. Thanks to you my lenders and thanks to Zidisha that was patient with me even when repayments became slow. I wouldn't be where i am without you. My next consistent comes in next week, will make pictures available

    the loan has really helped with increased sales. Will upload a picture of my next consignment as I am receiving them. Thanks to Zidisha I never thought I could make it in the commodity market because of financial constraint, but today I am a happier me. Thanks once again to my lenders, I really appreciate your concern in seeing I become financially independent.

    I ventured into kola nuts, it was very slow at first since its an entirely new commodity market for me. Made some losses, but over came & am now going ground with it. The beans supply is still on and my weekly profit margin has also increased. Thanks Zidisha for the support.

    I urged her to try and contact one Jane Gogo-Peter ( also my mentee who happened to be close to her) to help me find out if she is having issues in paying back her loan, to call me to help her resolve it. She promised she would do that for me.

    Mentee did contacted me a while ago and listed troubles she was going through at the moment.

    1. She said she lost her phone & sim card in it and retrieval of sim in Nigeria is something out of this world.
    2. She can't get immediate access to her bank details to ascertain if the auto deduction payment enabled on her zidisha app page has been effective all through her absence.

    3. She has been quite busy with her job and travels.

    She promised to at soonest possible time resolve her loan repayments.

    mentee's phone line is unreachable but I have sent several msgs to both her phone and whatsapp page and am sure she has read and understood the content. Nevertheless, I spoke with one of her reference (Meg Inyang) and pleaded with her to help pass my msg to her. Reference promised to pass my msg, so hopefully, Mentee would contact me soon.

    Ventured into a new business but did not make profit as expected as the turnover is still low but progressive. Will revert back to original plan as soon as it picks up

    From one bag of beans a month to 4 bags of beans a month has been so encouraging thanks to d loan I have also ventured into palm oil in small quantities, hoping it will also grow

    Big big thanks to zidisha. I started this business with just one bag of beans but today I am boasting of 5 bags and even want to venture into other commodities. Its been a wonderful experience having to turn money over. Thanks team Zidisha once again and my brother Reginald who introduced me.
