Honestly I am not a chronic begger, last year when I asked for the freezer, I was just trying to get something doing because I was out of job and I cannot be begging people for food and I didn't get the freezer any body from here can show up if I got the freezer. I used to be the breadwinner of my family so nobody could help me except to collect from me being the first child. There was a time my younger brothers were accusing me of being wicked because I didn't send money to my parents as I used to do when I was working and also seeing my children crying of hunger almost made me have BP. There was a time last year I borrowed money from micro finance bank to start food business at bus stop but the area boys were disturbing me to sleep with them so I had to stop the business because sometimes they would scatter my food this made it difficult for me to pay the remaining repayment and those people really embarrassed me in my area, it was someone that helped to pay the balance when she saw the embarrassment I was going through and I don't want to borrow money to start any business. There was a time someone asked me to send my CV to him here and I sent it immediately but I didn't hear from the person. So, I couldn't stay at home just because I don't have a job so I went for the fashion training so that I can be productive. Thank God somebody provided the sewing machine for me, I am very happy because anytime I wake up in the morning and see the machine, I am always happy. |

breadplanets:Please ma, I am not trying to insult you, how many children do you have and how much do you and your children spend daily including food apart from school expenses? |

Please let's take it easy on the poster, I have gone through her story, seems her husband wasn't very responsible and on top of that married another wife leaving her to fend for the kids. Seems she has been doing it all alone and is getting frustrated. Poster needs to calm down too and stop with the rude reponses, as much as it hurts to be called a scam 5 Likes |

Eketem: Poster is used to getting free stuff. People that are used to stretching out their hands rarely know how to be productive with same hands. I am ashamed for her that after all the begging she has been doing, it is not enough for her to buy fabric and sewing supplies with 2k in order to sew clothes for children like she claims. Sewing supplies are dirt cheap, at least the basic, especially if your making clothes for children. If I wasn't also a designer maybe I wouldn't know what she was talking about. Madam Op, you Are a lazy person. Your type full my family, they rarely ever amount to much, always coming up with excuses. Please wait for 20k to buy fabric. Don't collect cloth sew and use the money to buy more, continue begging shamelessly. 3 Likes |
Re: Please, My Good People I Need Sewing Machine by onegig(m): 8:02pm On Sep 28, 2018 |
Like seriously? The way you were even demanding for the 20k felt like you were the one that put it in there. To even put a price to it seems a lot suspicious. I need help to buy materials would have been succint but putting a price tag and pushing it forcefully seems a bit off putting. Yeah, we all go through rough patches and need the help of people sometimes. Edited. She actually did not get a Freezer like errroneously thought previously. 1 Like |

Small businesses don’t always thrive at the beginning so I won’t be surprised that even if she received help to start business before, (although she says she didn’t) the business may not have been successful. OP I don’t doubt your story (for now) but as other people have said, accept the help you’ve gotten and make something out of it. God speed 3 Likes |
Re: Please, My Good People I Need Sewing Machine by onegig(m): 1:01am On Sep 29, 2018 |
Eketem: Thanks for pointing out that. Would amend the initial post accordingly. As for the op. Would send anything I can afford. But at least start networking. Also, most first clients of small businesses were their family members and friends. If you are religious, most worship houses have women groups. You can join such and inform the head to help you announce that you sew and would give great discount to members. It is a good way to start getting clients. Good luck. 1 Like |

onegig:Thank you very much for the advice sir, I really appreciate it and I pray that your generation will not experience poverty amen. Honestly I am not a begger it is just the situation I find myself, if somebody told me 2 years ago that I will be in this situation, I will not believe it but all the same I thank God when there is life there is hope. I always pray for the person that provided the sewing machine because it is part of source of my joy. Please my people, from the day the sewing machine was provided for me, I did not ask any body for financial assistance both here and any other place but I am still new in the business which limit my customers, it was when somebody sent a message to me to assist me that I made known that I have gotten the sewing machine but she can assist me with the business plan I have in mind. I don't receive cloths everyday but we must eat daily apart from other expenses. So I think by sewing cloths for sale will increase my income and customers to meet other needs. Sir, as I am talking to you I have changed my children school to where I pay N300 per day for the three children but I have not bought the books required by the teacher. Sir, with any amount you will send to me, I will use it for the business no matter how small and I promise not to respond to anybody again. Thank you, God bless you and your family sir. |

Let me not spoil show for you But you are becoming an Oliver twist Start with what you have gotten With one machine you can work to get another one Stop pastering people with your demand for another machine We have our own challenges and we choose not to inconvenience others Learn to sort yourself without living a life of pity |

tttmar: There is something off about you, from the way you asked her if she was the person that gave you 3000 Naira (somewhat mischievously), the way you " bless" some and sass some, something not quite okay. You try to veil it, but unsuccessfully I have to say I am a sucker for helping people, it is a good thing, but you need to come off your entitlement high horse, and be more polite (genuinely ) I wish you all the best regardless 3 Likes |
