    Hello,it has been long since I updated my lenders and Zidisha org. Things have been tough here for the last few years and i have not made any payment for a very long time,but I believe in integrity and I must repay this Loan. I have made my first repayment today,and i hope to complete and clear this loan by the end of this year. I have never defulted any loan and I am not planning to,My business had some challenges,I closed down the college in 2020 due to covid. But I am grateful that I can be able to service the loan now. Thank you for being understanding.

    Hello,i just want to say thank you to Zidisha org. and lenders for the support you've been giving us. For the last four years I have been struggling in my business to a point where I had to close down my College in 2018. But I am still going to try it one more time from 1st April 2019. I have a passion of mentoring young people in my line of beauty industry. For the last four years we've been in operation I managed to train over 30 young people with a diploma in Cosmetology and that's the reason I am going to try it ONE more time because I believe I have a future in this business. Thanks for the zidisha loan you extended to me.God bless you
