My Business

I have been doing this business for more than two years now.I started by hiring a motorbike at KES 350 per day.And after saving little by little i managed to buy my own used motorbike at KES 60,000 from a friend.I offer transport service to people within Busia town and also across the border to Uganda.There is a big demand for this service the fact that Busia is located at the Kenya Uganda border many people travel here and there for business purposes.The good thing is i can earn up to KES 1500 per day.

    Hi Elijah,
    I note that you are VM for Brendah Jeptum .
    Brendah has only made one repayment and is now 12 payments behind.
    I have suggested that she reschedules her repayments if she is having difficulty, but she has not replied to my message.
    Do you know if Brendah is OK?
    Thanks for your work as a VM at Zidisha.
    Regards
    Michael
