Campaign Story

Your 500 naira, your 1k will go a long way for me, please help me. Hi, I am a 17-year-old student of Doctor of Pharmacy. Please, I really need help. My family is very poor, im on holiday right now. But I had to pay my school fees for the 100 level by myself, which I borrowed money from online loans for, and I’ve been trying to repay them since. But I have no source of income, as the bead making that I was doing before ran down because of expenses. My dad has no job, and my mom is a diabetes type 1 patient, and she has to buy insulin regularly. She teaches at a government school in Kogi State. Her salary isn’t that much, so I have to do most of everything by myself. I had to take care of my feeding throughout school. The little money I was getting from my bead making business, I was eating it right after. I do not get money from my family members except once in a while. I almost starved to death in school before I came back home. And now I’m back home, and these loan sharks keep disturbing me and pestering me for money, even though no matter how small it is, anytime I have money, I always give them. Like if my dad were to send me 5,000 Naira, I would send 3,000 Naira to them and keep 2,000 Naira, maybe buy a bit of fresh tomatoes and all. I even joined different programs in school that helped me with foodstuff from time to time. I tell them my story, then they help me with a bit of foodstuff. And anytime these loan apps call me because my money is overdue, it has been overdue, since when my first semester ended, I always pick up and I explain to them and I tell them that I’m always going to keep paying, paying until I pay entirely . But they do not understand what I’m saying, and they keep on adding interest every day, and they keep on disgracing me and humiliating me. I have become ridiculed, and I am literally not even adding anything to the loan amount right now. The loan amount in total is 150,000 Naira, and I just want to pay them back. When I pay them back, I’m going to sell my phone. I’m currently using an iPhone XR, which my elder sister bought for me the last two years, and I think I’m going to sell the phone. Yes, my elder sister also helps me with small money from time to time, but she doesn’t really have a solid job. She just sells bags and shoes that she gets from her supplier. She doesn’t even have a shop because she studied Geography and she could not get a job with the course. That’s why I’m currently studying Pharmacy hoping I can rewrite my family’s life . So, yes she helps me with small money from time to time, which I make sure I give these people. In school, I rely on Wi-Fi. I can’t even buy data for myself. Right now, I’m currently on borrowed data. The loan sharks, they keep calling me, humiliating me. I explain to them all the time. As I said, I’m going to sell my phone. Immediately I raise the money. I’m going to sell my phone. I should be able to get a bit over 100,000 from selling my phone. When I get that, I’ll try to put it into something like a business or I don’t know. I recently managed to get 10,000 Naira from a friend. He gave it to me for free and I sent 5,000 Naira to Okash. I also owe Easemoni because I joined the loan from Okash and Easemoni to pay my school fees. So I was like, I want to repay all my loan on Easemoni. So I decided to open a spottybet account and fund it with the remaining 5,000 Naira. Hoping to get a little bit more than 5,000 Naira so that I would pay some of the Easemoni loan. I ended up losing and I currently have nothing, and they keep calling me, threatening me. They are looking for me and I keep explaining to them the situation I’m in. I always try to pay them back. I just hope I will even be able to go to school next year. Because we are resuming back next year. But things were really hard at the time I went to school last year. That’s why I had to do it myself. So hopefully they’ll be able to do school fees for me (My parents ).And the money I get from selling my phone, I’ll try to invest it. Even though the economy is really bad and I don’t know what to invest it in. But please, please, I really need your help. I really need your help. Your 1,000 Naira, your 2,000 Naira will go a very long way. I don’t know what images to attach due to the situation that I’m in. But if you need any means of verification, do you need my mother’s medical bill? Do you need a picture of me, where I live? Or the loan apps, the messages they’ve sent, the replies I’ve sent, the emails I’ve sent. And messages, upon messages that they have been sending, harassing me, my admission letter,my bank statements?, anything you need, please don’t skip this. I’m literally 17 and I’m fed up with life. I don’t know what to do, please please please I’m in tears please it feels so suffocating please, this is my last resort.(the picture attached is a picture of me.), thank you so so much (and I’m willing to do some things too to earn money as long as it’s legal, just help me please.
