« You should not focus more on paying back, but rather focus more on working hard to get more funds »
The fact that the money obtained from AMEBE is to be paid back should not be the main worry to young entrepreneurs beneficiaries of the loan․ Instead ,this should be a reason for them to work hard and achieve satisfying results to ease they payment ․ To that end , Lin Nzokira the field officer at AMEBE who met young entrepreneurs on the field in the process of mentoring and coaching them, advised all the young entrepreneurs not to focus more on the idea that they are to pay back but on the work itself for it is what matters most․ For him, if they put much focus on the work they get a good harvest and consequently easily pay back the money ․In addition, this a way for them to broaden their opportunities․
