About Me

Simon Akpaloo is my name, I was born and bread in village called Kofi Kwei in Ga West District of Greater Accra Region where I had my Basic Education Certificate Examination and proceed to Adabraka in Accra to continue my education to Senior Secondary School, from their to Accra Polytechnic where I read Accounting. I am currently doing my BSc. Business Administration Accounting option at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology. Am single but would be married soon after I complete school.

My Business

In 2013, I gained admission to do a top-up in Accounting in the university. I am currently pursuing a Distance Learning programme in Bsc Business Administration, Accounting option at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), Accra Centre. I am in level 400. My father helped to some extent but now that he is retired, I have to solely pay my fees but the money I get from my work is not enough to pay my fees and take care of the family. I had some difficulties the past year after I gained admission to do this programme. About a month ago a friend introduced zidisha loan to me that it will be of a great help to me,

Loan Proposal

The loan if given would be use for payment of my school fees for the semester.
the amount is 337 US Dollars, and its cedis equivalent is ghc 1615 cedis.
The benefits this money would give me is among other things such as easy payment of my school fees, fear of been sacked for fees would no more, peace of mind to study, it would afford me the opportunity to do other things such as buying of books and educational materials from other sources other than the loan.
Completing school by the help of this loan would be great; in the sense that my educational qualification be advanced, more job opportunities would be available per my qualification, I also be a step closer to doing my masters in the near future and so on.

      Hi, Simon,

      Here's information about a technical problem that occurred on the website recently: forum.zidisha.org/threads/w...

      All of the teams (there are different teams for each country where Zidisha has borrowers) have been working hard to re-enter all payment information that disappeared from borrower Repayment screens during the data loss that occurred March 15th through March 17th.

      Anything that was not payment-related, though, will not be able to be re-entered... for example, comments on your Discussion page, unless people remember what they wrote, or took a screenshot of it, or saved it in any other way for themselves, and then come back in to re-post it; however, that's unlikely to happen, unfortunately.

      Am sure the people responsible at the hosting service feel terrible about what has happened and are very sorry for their error and all of the inconveniences caused to so many people (to borrowers, to lenders, to staff members, and even just to site visitors).

      This was a very rare occurrence and the programmers are working with the site's hosting service to establish more thorough safeguards to ensure that three days' worth of data loss like that does not happen again.

    Dear Lenders,
    I contacted Mr. Simon and his inviter Ms. Juliet and they promised to continue payment. It's my understanding that a minor setback caused him to miss those weeks. Thank you.

      Dear Lenders, Mr. Simon is still unreachable by phone. I'll keep trying to reach him, though.
