About Me

My name is Samson. I am a Nigerian, I am an entrepreneur and i also work in the aviation industry. I am into poultry farming, I hope to become a major player in the agricultural sector in the nearest future. My dream is to grow my business to become the biggest supplier of birds not just in Nigeria but in the West Africa region.
I have a passion for the aviation industry and I hope to invest in it. However this is rather a long term vision. I believe my experience as an aviation security will count when the time for massive investment comes.

My Business

I am into poultry farming as well as agriculture. I also have a reliable source of income being a staff at the airport.

I also have a small scale retail shop where I sell some commodities at retail price. This line of business really need massive investments.

Loan Proposal

Having tried out my hands in poultry farming and doing pretty well. I have decided to go into farming. I have cleared a couple of land by employing the services of labourers. These lands are now ready to be cultivated hence the need to buy seeds. I have decided to buy maize grains and cassava stem cuttings. The maize grains will be planted first followed by the cassava stem cuttings a couple of weeks later. I hope to make good returns at the end of the farming season.

Income Source

The Corona outbreak has dealt a host of businesses a blow but some of us are still able to get by one way or the other. I'm a poultry farmer as well as having a retail store. Restaurants and fast food joints have reopened and my poultry patronage has increased. I will be able to finance the proposed loan from my personal income from poultry.

    My farm didn't do well cause of inadequate rainfall between the months of July and August. I had to source for funds to be able to plant another set of seedlings so I can take advantage of the September and October rainfall

    I'd love to be giving an extension till 30th September, I promised to pay off debt on or before the 30th of September.

    I will want to use this opportunity to debunk claims by Mr Benjamin that my number has not been going through. My phone hasn't gone off in the last 5 months. I'm anxiously expecting a call from him or anyone from zidisha platform.
