My name is Tutu Romeo Antwi, a native of Asukawkaw in the Oti Region of Ghana. I was born on 18th April, 1990. The education of my siblings and i became the sole responsibility of my father who was an elementary school teacher after my mum lost her job in 1999 but also retired in 2007.
After completing Senior Secondary School with my senior brother in 2008, I got admission into Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology but my dad couldn't afford the fees because my senior brother also got admission into the teacher training college that same year and my two siblings were also in the elementary school.
I secured a job in a construction company in 2018 and enabled me assist my dad in paying the fees of my senior brother and my two siblings.
I got admission into the training college in 2011 and eventually bought a tricycle to enable me pay my fees. I finally completed in 2014 as a professional teacher.
The tricycle business has been my main source of income even though I'm a professional teacher. Its is this business that is helping me cater for my two siblings in school.
The tricycles business has always been my main source of income. Through Zidisha, i have been able to do bodyworks on my my tricycle. Currently I need this loan to purchase a new engine for the tricycle.
Though many businesses face risk due to the corona virus pandemic, the transportation business is not affected and my tricycle when fixed will be able to do pickups and delivery which will me to pay back the loan in time
