    I almost give up on The Gambia but your this video inspired me again. Hope our government will empower all the businesses with the basic needs like constant electricity and water which we have been asking for over fifty years now. I know many people in the states who wanted to invest in The Gambia but their only issue is electricity and water. Keep it up Sis will definitely check out your spot upon my visit with the family.

    • @zandelalifeBizGambia
      @zandelalifeBizGambia  3 роки тому +2

      Listen the electric is still a major major problem for me. I talk about it in my next video it’s madness and I honestly don’t know how these businesses operate. We paid stupid amount of money for a 27KVA generator and still if power goes we running around turning off the heaviest items like the display fridge, AC units etc it’s just annoying..... worst is Everyone had the nerve to tell me Kololi is good power but it’s worst than Sakuta by far as it uses so much power Nawac don’t business to lock it off for hours to save of Diesel when their supply is low. I can’t stand it!!!!!! Rant over ✌🏿

    Love this! I’m so inspired by the work you’re doing! My husband is from Rwanda, and I’m trying to convince him to move back and start some projects. As soon as we get our finances squared away, ✈️. Any tips for generating more capital?

    • @zandelalifeBizGambia
      @zandelalifeBizGambia  3 роки тому +6

      Aww that’s lovely to hear thank you. Rwanda is on my list I would love to visit there some day soon. I think I have a few videos a while back on some of the ways I raised funds. I had an 18 month plan but didn’t meet my finances goals at the end of it but moved anyway just had to sacrifice a few things like buying land and finishing the building work on the upstairs of our house. I will find the finances for sure but couldn’t let it stop or delay my move.
