About Me

David Oyula is born 1980 and the last-born from a family of six. we were four males unfortunately one passed on and left behind a family of three. females are two.
I went to makunga primary school, wet to Ingotse High and finally went to a Teachers` training college at Mosoriot and now a teacher at Buduta in Busia county.
I began business after i realized that responsibilities had rose and as the only sole bread winner in the family wanted to increase my source of income to also cater for the family left behind by my late young brother.
Whatever i earn from the business is used to purchase more stock, pay wages, rent and the security man.
Your support will highly be appreciated.

My Business

I operate a shop that provide variety of services. This include Computer services - Photocopy, Typesetting, Internate services, Video Coverage & Editing, Instrumentation & Song recording.Sale of Empty Dvds & Cds, Memory cards.
Due to digital transformation allover the above services are thriving in the remote areas where customers cannot access towns easily. this leads to increased sales and high demand given that most of the services have been devolved to the counties. people no longer travel but access the same at our premises.
The Loan will help me increase the area of operation and buy effective equipment given the changing trends in our day to day activities.

Loan Proposal

Thanks very much Zidisha for giving me the opportunity to expand. This time round with my third loan I purpose to settle a medical bill for my Dad who has been in the hospital for the past Three month with a grafted leg and who is about to be discharged due to improvement of his condition and the hospital bill as of now stands at about 1818 dollars. The NHIF will pay two thirds and will of set the balance since am the only working guy in the family.
The balance will help me buy a duplicating machine for DVD`s & CD`s. at an approximate cost of 560 Dollars. This is because at the moment I find it difficult to duplicate over 200 pieces of DVD`s or CD`S on a normal DVD/CD burner. This wastes time and overworks the current machine that I have and above all wastes a lot of time something that my clients finds it annoying.
With a duplicating machine will improve time and increase production since it is faster because several copies are duplicated once.
The balance will help.
I trust for your help.
Be blessed as you stand with me.

    Hi all,
    For a long time, I have not paid my loan that was granted to me by lenders, I feel guilty that they gave me and it indeed helped me to pay medical bills for my sick Dad. Since then i stumbled in payments due to issues I could not avoid.
    Kindly want to say sorry and to resume repaying my loan that is in arrears.
    thanks all.

    Hi David, I saw that you invited Ibrahim Mukatia on his loan and I was wondering if you could contact him to find out what's going on with it. It's not 2 and a half years past due.
    Thanks,
    Aaron

    For A long time have been through ups and downs with a lot of trouble that has made me go into arrears on my loan. I have made a change on payment schedule to allow me pay with ease.
    Thanks.

      Hello David,
      Do you think you are perhaps confusing March and April? I can see no other reason, why given the information I can see that you would not believe you would be in arrears.

      Good luck.

        Hi Roy,

          If that is the case, procedure guidelines which state that it can take up to three working days to process, means it should have been process by yesterday.... I suggets you allow another day then send a message to [email protected]....

    Hello lenders,
    It is just unfortunate that bad things happen to good people. This year has been very tough for me especially personal. When the year was starting it started by admission of my dad in hospital for up to three months. Almost the same time my loved wife got involved in accident in kericho and there after got a miscarriage.
    Finally the year has ended with burying my sister who passed on and getting involved in an accident at the same period.
    But above all am strong and God has seen me through. Am recovering and hope all will be well.
    Kindly not to hurt my lenders I have rescheduled my loan to improve my repayment rate and also not to get to arrears.
    Thanks for your patience. will reschedule once things move on.

    Hello lenders,
    I want to thank God for this far he has brought me as far as Zidisha is concerned. I took a loan to salvage my father from A huge hospital bill after he was admitted with cellulitis for up to three months and also went through several operations (surgical toileting) to correct his ailing leg.
    The good news is that we managed to clear the bill. Dad was discharged and as at now he is in stable condition and will be uploading photos of his current situation anytime soon.
    I also was to use the balance to buy a duplicating machine to ease my work but unfortunately I was not able since the prices had gone up than I expected. I therefore used the balance to settle my Dad back at home and also to pay for a doctor who dresses him at home since I pay upto 3 dollars per visit and about 8 Dollars for every visit to the hospital for check ups.
    Otherwise I take this opportunity to Thank zidisha family as a whole for coming to my aid at the very time of my need. Thank you very much. and God bless you.

    Hello Lenders, David says he has had a slight delay in his payment due to escalating teachers strike him being a teacher too. So since the salary from teaching job has not been coming through he is entirely depending on the business for all bills. But he promised to work hard and ensure he does the payment soonest time possible. Thank you for your patience lenders.
