Today, they are requesting a loan of Le 1,300,000 each to further add to their businesses.

Abdulai Kargbo (on the right in the photo) is the leader of this group. Abdulai, 39 and born in Makeni City, is a married father of four – two in secondary schools, one in primary school and the last not yet of school age. Abdulai, a businessman for the over five years now, sells medicines.
