About Me

I am Gbankulso Soale Lute , 21 years of age , i completed high School at the age 18 years , i love and playing video games like soccar ,i am a Ghanaian by nationality, i am from the northern sector of Ghana , with Tamale as the regional capital and i am a Gonja by tribe in my country we are known as the Gonjas and the powerful people .

My culture,the way of life of my people(Gonjas) is more interesting tasted than heard because not all reactions and feellings can be expressed with words. with my culture ,several activities are tabood and not accepted among these are , adultry, fornication , stealling just to mention but afew. I love my land and my people for Hardwork, Strong, powerful and very influential.

Well, I have nothing much to say, I completed both basic, junior and secondary school from my hometown Buipe in the Northern Region.
My current educational status is Tertiary I am at the university currently offering a degree program in Actuarial Science. Basically, per my knowledge and understanding of the course, Actuarial science is the application of mathematical, statistical and economical approach to solve issues with finance and other related professions.

My Business

My business
Basically, I sell recharge cards of all the available network operator in my country Ghana these operators include, MTN, VODAFONE, AIRTEL, TIGO AND GLO.
in my country the major form of intra and inter personal communication is by mobile phones and computers and with ths, a mobile network provider is required and with the mobile network provider an airtime is required to run. I sat and made my own analysis and realized that getting airtime to communicate was a major challenge in my community, and as a business minded individual, you need to take advantage of the problems of your community to excell. Although the start up capital was also another great challenge I needed to overcome but per my determination and influensiveness I was able to convince my unty to give me aloan to start up my own business until now though I faced alot of challenges among them include, competition, consistency and also management but now I have a stable business with almost fixed income ranging from 200 to 300 Ghana cedis weekly.
I choose this recharge cars business for their higher demand and durability.
With the profit generated could cater for my school fees and tuition right through primary to High School and now to the University.

Loan Proposal

I started my business with little but with the main motive of marginalizing my resources, i am now a little bit on top of others.
Basically, I will buy provisions with the loan if honoured, among them include, biscuits, detergents, minerals, tofees and many others.

With the biscuits, like perk, king cracker, onion craker, cream craker mention but a few. Each pack cost for about 30 cedis (7.5 dollars) which after sales will be 55cedis (13.75 dollars) with this there is a profit of 25cedis on each pack which will take like 5 days each pack to finish.

With the soft drinks like cola, 5 star ,storm, fanta, sprite, malt, mentioned but a few each pack is about 22 cedis (5.5 dollars) which is of 12 pieces which after sales will be 400 cedis (10 dollars) which will also take 3 days for a pack to finish.
With this I can increase my profit to a certain height and with that I can expand my shop ask targeted.

    Gbankulso Lute had cited you as a reference in applying to join our organization, Zidisha Microfinance. Gbankulso Lute is now 37 days in arrears on a loan taken from Zidisha.
    I never knew Gbankulso Lute anywhere and therefore wonder how he cited me as his reference.He was only assign to me as a mentee.So Iam only a mentor to him.I tried contacting him on several occasions yet his line was completely off.I shall not give up on him but it must be on record that I do not know him so as for him to cite me as his reference. Thank you.

    I made several attempt to talk him but was not successful.However I spoke to a community leader who promise to talk to him to resume payment of the loan.I hope and pray after listening to this old man,he will be obedient and start repayment

    As I said earlier, I will buy soft and energy drinks among which are malt, fanta, cola, 5star, storm and royal apple drinks and also buy biscuits if honoured.
    With this, my products will be increased as a result my profit to will be marginalized and with the profit I can further my education and in time expand my business.

    Finally, I thank all the zidisha team for this opportunity and giving me this privilege to join the zidisha society, most especially, those that honoured this loan and they will always be part if my success story .
    Thank you zidisha, thank you my honorable lenders God be with you.
