About Me

I am Isaac Amekeh , the 10th child in a family of 11
My old father and mother understood the importance of formal education but could not raise enough funds to look after my brothers and me. As result I work hard on the farm to raise enough money to finance my education up to Secondary school. I later trained as a mason and have worked for these 7 years.
The need to create a secondary source of income to fend for my nephews and nieces has compelled me to take to dealing in sandals when I have no new site to work on.

My Business

I deal in brand news sandals.
People need these sandals to look presentable when they attend ocasions
The demand is high seeing no one would do away with footwear.
I buy them from a local manufacturer anmd have to pay transportation to convey them to the stall where I display it.
The proceeds are used to pay school fees and to feed my children and nephews.
Part of the profit goes into growing the same business.

    Isaac paid off his loan perfectly and was a pleasure to work with. I would gladly lend to him again.

    I just spoke with Isaac on phone, according to him he has lost almost everything he has due to his ill mother health. He told me he is taking a masonry job with a construction company and promised to resume payment as soon as they pay him for the job done.

    I had a meeting with Isaac concerning his late repayment , according to him, he had some family challenges and this has affected his sandals business. However, he has promised to start the business again in the month of October, and then start making payment gradually going forward. I advised him to adjust his repayment amount to a level he can regularly be paying.

    I see you have missed several payments. Remember it is very important to make regular payments even if they are small so you can continue to borrow from Zidisha. You can log into your account at anytime to change your payment schedule. Zidisha offers a great opportunity to help grow your business.

    I spoke with Isaac on several occasions and according to him he has been off and on from the hospital due to ill health, hence his inability to work and repay the loan. However he is assuring me that he hopes to get well soon so that he can start working again and then resume repayment.
