About Me

I am Jonathan Lui. I was born and brought in Mombasa likoni area. I was born in a family of two boys me being the first born of my family. I am a father of one and married to one wife. I went to school in Lukore high school and after that joined Mombasa ideal college of business studies (MICOBS) for my radio production course. I was employed by radio kaya as a producer, presenter and voice of the station and later was pouched by Baraka FM where i am doing the same. I am an artist and an MC as well.

My Business

I am currently employed by Baraka FM in Mombasa town. i have thought of a small businesses of selling fresh fruits and juice, this came to me after realizing alot of people in Mombasa and Kenya in general are avoiding the packed juice in supermarket and prefer taking fresh fruit or juice prepared direct from the fruit and due to this demand of fresh fruit and juice i have thought of starting a fruit parlour and also have big thermoses to supply in the most crowded areas and this will increase my monthly in come and give me a chance to do my mass media diploma course. After doing the calculation i found that if you lend me forty thousand Kenyan shillings (40,000Ksh) then will be in the best position of buying a freezer,a blender and two thermos for supply and from that point i will be doing the production in my house till i save enough money to hear a place.

Loan Proposal

I want to produce a pilot programme in order to achieve my dream of becoming a TV anchor. This will increase my profit margins. Lenders please support me in making this great move towards achieving my dream. I know i have all the qualities, ideas, capabilities and all i lack is the pilot programme that will cost me $200.

Hi Lui. You have been too silent. Hope you have not been put down by the expiry of your application. I encourage you to reapply and there are chances that you will go through.
Our friend Erique (www.zidisha.org/loan/15460) tried a second time and he went through.
You case is not exceptional. Give it another try. Would really like to see your dream of bringing up more TV and radio program producers come true.
Please do not quit.

Hi Jonathan. Following our meeting I was quite impressed by your achievements and I believe you still have a bright future. I propose that you reapply your loan which I believe will draw you closer to your dream of a training project so that you can help the upcoming radio and TV programs producers.
Please dont give up yet. I look forward to your refreshed application.
