    hello zidisha team. the last loan really made my business stability strong and for now with the additional stock from the new application, it's my hope that all will be good. thank you in advance.

    Hello to zidisha team.
    The reason for the change in the instalment amount is due to the harvest that i had after the long rains in kenya that made me sell maize and beans.
    I also take this opportunity to apologise for the late payment of the last fund that i was running with.
    Lastly I would wish to thank Zidisha for their patience when thing did move well for me and request to continue being astrong member.
    Thank you.
