About Me

Am Stephen Obeng-Appau. I am 26 years old, completed secondary school when I was 18 years old. At the time of entering the university, I lost my father. I therefore deferred going to the university due to financial difficulties. Staying home for one extra year I was teaching in my community to raise money so as I can go to the university the following year.
Though things were rough, with the help from my single mother, I managed to complete the university, where I graduated with 1st degree in Information Technology (IT). Currently, I'm doing a one year national saving with opportunity International.
It's my hope to go and do my masters' degree immediately after my one year national service.

My Business

My wish is to do my masters' degree in IT, where I can use IT to help transform the lives of people living in deprive communities, and also work with reputable organization and earn a regular income, so as I can assist my family, my community and country financially.

Loan Proposal

I intend to use the loan to pay for my masters education at the university.
1. Payment of fees $ 550
2. Purchase of books $ 240
In all a total of $ 790 for the start of my masters education.

    I have successfully completed my loan repayment. A repayment of 200 GHS made since November 16, 2019 is still not credited into my account due to the message below. I just spoke with MTN and they promised me tha between 5-15 working days they can do the reversal for me.

    Dear Zidisha member,
    We have been informed that payments made to our old MTN account (MITa) after November 16, 2018 are now available for reversal.

    As previously announced, we stopped receiving payments via our old MTN account on November 16, 2018. We may now only receive payments via the Pay buttons in your Zidisha account dashboard.

    If you made a payment to our old MTN payment account (MITa) after November 16 and it was not credited to your Zidisha account, please go to MTN and request a reverasal of your payment by February 15, 2019.

    If you have any difficulty receiving your reversal, please send an email to [email protected] and let us know.

    Kind regards,

    Julia Kurnia
    Director, Zidisha
