    Dear lenders, it's really true that my repayment has fall, and the reason is that , I was seriously sick and whiles I was at the hospital I left my shop to my wife one of my workers, accidentally I had a message that, armed robbers has attacked them on their way to Kumasi to purchase some items for the shop. At that time they took 12000Ghs from them, that has cause the fall of my repayment, but still, I promise to pay all the money back. I therefore wish to apologize all my lenders. Thanks for your patience.

      Remember 95% on-time repayment, is a limit you need to reach for your next loan to be bigger than this one.... You should be able to reach that if all your future repayments are on-time.
      Good luck,
