About Me

As an African child, growing up to become responsible without the proper care from both father and mother is not easy. I was unfortunate to lose my father as early as six (6) years, as I was told by my mother. So it was difficult for mother (a widow) to send me to school, especially with my four elder brothers without going to school. But, I thank God, a family member came out and supported me to go to school and I have completed both basic education and the senior high school.

I have started with my life journey and now am working with the MTN network where I am also receiving a regular income each month, and due to that I had some small capital to start with a farming project. This motivated me to invest into farming. Also, I am seeking your support to give me the loan to invest more in the farming project. The profit I get from my farming business would be used to help support my mother and my others in need in the family.

Some time, too, I take my time to visit orphanage homes with my family to share our love with them. The best time is when I remember how I used to play basketball at my school time, because I like sports.

My Business

I am now working with the MTN network which is my monthly salary income but I also have a taxi. It is used by someone and that person makes sales every day; each week he brings me $30 dollars. When the loan is given to me, I will use weekly income to make regular repayment each week to settle with my lenders.

Thanks very much all my lenders who would help fund this loan on time for me. I love you all and may God bless you. Thanks again.

Loan Proposal

I want to used this loan to expand my my farming project by buying more agricultural chemicals to spray on the crops that I have cultivated, I also want buy more yam sets .I want to use park of this loan to cultivate more plantain and buy the right plantain suckers to boost the production level. I buy the new spare parts to replace the old parts.
