    I have had my shop broken into in the last two months that's why i have not been able to remit my payments on time.however i hope to come back fully after two months from now.am so sorry.I have so far taken the issue with the police and am so happy because just shall soon be done and therefore have the financial muscle to commit timely repayments.This is something that has really lagged my business back and hence no bad intention or whatsoever.
    My lenders please.i deeply apologize for my late repayments.
    Regards Cosmas Kenga

    Hi All,
    I would like to appreciate the kind of work done by zidisha.This is a wonderful loan programme based on mere trust from both the borrower and the lender.i personally have never seen; getting a loan without security or collateral.Whoever came up with this idea was wonderfully.however i fail to understand how they deal with defaulters.To increase the volumes of borrowers,i would prefer them adding an extra kshs 500/-on the referral programme.This is to motive people and subsequent give rise to more people coming into zidisha programmes.Last,i would like to request the management to add more field workers from their native countries as most of the small business men cannot comprehend english language.This would help zidisha as a whole.God bless zidisha........
