    As somebody tried communicating with him. this unfair for the trust you members had entrusted in him yet he could just vanish like that is not good.Even though the business could be having challenging ,still enough reason to communicate

    Why nobody (zidisha) do anything in this case? It's not OK that this person didn't repay the outstanding money. Why zidisha don't contact George Ndungu??? What's the reason, why he don't repay the money completly?

    Dear lenders,

    My name is Traci Yoshiyama and I am Zidisha's Client Relationship Manager in Kenya.

    I spoke with Mr. Ndungu and he has been struggling with business and family challenges for some time now. He did resume work a couple of weeks ago and hopes that he can begin making partial payments as of next month.

    We appreciate your patience and please do not hesitate to ask any questions or voice your concerns.

    Best,
    Traci Yoshiyama

    Dear lenders,

    My name is Traci Yoshiyama and I am Zidisha's Client Relationship Manager in Kenya.

    Mr. George Ndungu has informed me that he has been having challenges within his family, which is why he has been unable to make payments for the past few months. He apologizes for the troubles this may have caused and thanks everyone for their patience.

    Best regards,
    Traci
