About Me

MY MANE IS LAWSON ANITHER LATSU, I AM A GHANAIAN FROM VOLTA REGION OF GHANA AND FROM AKATSI NORTH DISTRICT BUT NOW STAYING AT DZODZE IN THE KETU NORTH DISTRICT OF GHANA.
I CAME FROM A HUMBLE HOME OF WHICH ALL PARENT ARE FARMERS, THEY DID NOT GOT THE OPPORTUNITY TO EDUCATE THEMSELVES AND SO TRYING EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO TAKE CARE OF OUR EDUCATION , THEY ARE TRYING THEIR BEST BUT IS NOT STILL POSSIBLE, I DO NOT HAVE ANY OPTION THAN TO JOIN THEM NOT TO STOP THE SCHOOL BUT TO FIND SOMETHING DOING AFTER SCHOOL AND HOLIDAYS AND THAT IS WHERE I ENGAGE IN KENTE WEAVING.

My Business

I ENGAGE INTO KENTE WEAVING AND I STARTED DOING BY WORKING FOR PEOPLE ON COMMISSION BASES, THEY BUY THE TREAD AND I WOVE FOR THEM. LATER ON I BEGAN TO BUY THE TREAD BY MYSELF BECAUSE I CAN NOT CONTINUE MAKING MONEY FOR PEOPLE, I AM A HARD WORKER SO I CAN WEAVE A SET LESS THAN A WEEK. KENTE IS AN AFRICAN WEAR FORMALLY WEAR BY TRADITIONAL RULERS ON SPECIAL OCCASIONS BUT NOW BOTH THE YOUTH AND THE OLD ONE WEAR IT AND EVEN PASTORS DO WEAR IT ON SUNDAYS. IT VERY SPECIAL CLOTH AND VERY EXPENSIVE SO WE DO MAKE MONEY FROM IT.

Loan Proposal

PLEASE I WILL USE THE LOAN TO BUY MORE TREAD SO THAT I CAN ALSO EMPLOY ABOUT TWO PEOPLE TO WEAVE FOR ME IN COMMISSION. I NEED DIFFERENT COLORS OF TREAD AS THAT IS WHAT WE USE IN WEAVING ALWAYS. IF I MYSELF CAN WEAVE A SET WHICH THE PROFIT OF THAT ONLY CAN PAY FOR ZIDISHA EVERY WEEK THEN TWO PEOPLE IN ADDITION TO ME WILL DO MACH AND I CAN ALSO SAVE SOME MONEY TO CONTINUE MY EDUCATION VERY SOON, MAY I FIND FAVOR BEFORE MY LENDERS, I NEED THIS LOAN AND I WILL PAY BACK WELL.
