About Me

I am humble businessman having been brought up from a humble background. I never lacked basic food,but clothing and education was a challenge. am the first born in a family of four.I have college Diploma education in Computer Engineering .This actually forms the backbone of my business because I can maintain most of my computers and photocopy machines therefore lowering business operational costs. my younger siblings have had the privilege of securing secondary education through me.Recently after securing business loan from Zidisha I was able to enrol my wife in fashion design course where she has graduated and having bought her a sewing machine ,she is ready to start her business and help in boosting family income.

My Business

My main business is simply technology, computer sales and repair,internet distribution small scale, cyber business, photocopying, phone sales and stationery. I bought a piece of land from extra income and this is where I intend to build my residence and family shop. This move is a bit costly but worthy in the long run.

Loan Proposal

The proposed Loan is to help me purchase a photocopy machine for my cyber cafe as the one I have is outdated and slow.The new one will help in printing as well and it is cost effective because the toner is cheaper than cartridges.The demand has been necessitated by the opening of a tertiary college in the neighborhood which has increased the demand of photocopying from students as well as tutors and printing of projects and exam materials.I appeal to Zidisha lenders to help me achieve this noble dream.

    Thomas Omare said he doesn't want me as his mentor. He is usually rude whenever I call. CRB will do for him

    Omare said he doesn't want a mentor who tells him to adjust installments for easy payment.

      Kindly don't blame mentors for your mistakes. Every mentor is meant to advise you appropriately when you delay payment. We;mentors also have mentors and when they advise us to adjust installments, we don't argue with them but rather appreciate and do it. Adjusting installments to your current capacity maintains consistency.
      I recorded one of the call I made, it's shocking that you are the one who is violent. Maybe it's because I am a woman and you are a man. It's time we embraced women in leadership as Africans

    telling me to reason or adjust to Kshs.100 per week is an insult to me,i choose this media because i don't want it to look personal.

    i know that my premiums are not up to date and i am not re-adjusting the weekly amount to deceive my mind, i know what i owe you guys and thanks a lot for your patience and concern.However i think the language used by your so called mentor sometime back makes it hard for me to reason with her.I will start remitting but io want it to be noted that it was the work of( your mentor) so let her not take credit for that.

      Kindly be sincere, how can asking you to adjust your loan be an insult? Zidisha has provided the adjustment option for our good. If you are consistent in paying no one can offer you adjustment option.

    Thomas response was very rude especially when I tried advising him on loan adjustments for easier payment.

    Dear Thomas,

    Please post a photo of *yourself* as the profile picture, at the very top of the screen. This is a Zidisha requirement. Please take care of this, as soon as possible. Thank you!

    The other photo that’s currently there, you can move to a lower spot on the Discussion page, with a note to your lenders. Thanks. :)

    Kind regards,

    When you see that I have delayed remitting my premiums, it doesn't mean I have forfeited.

    Annabel please stop pestering me with unnecessary calls and SMS, I am a responsible person and I know that I took Zidisha loan and I will repay it to the cent

    seems that zidisha has no tracking mechanism of tracing money sent to wrong accounts,so far i have lost about ksh. 12,000.and this is a huge loss.

    In the process of reaching out to Thomas. He didn't answer my calls when I called. He might call back

    Hello lenders, I forwarded some messages from Thomas Omare to Zidisha staff. I am awaiting verification from them. Thanks

    I am yet to receive feedback from the Zidisha team where Mr. Omare challenge is concerned. They must be in the process of reviewing the challenge
