I have been in the tender business for over 11 years, I believe I was doing great. I have been in and out of relationships. I strongly believe the reason I could not get a woman to stay with me and settle down was due to my busy working hours and traveling a lot. I thought after making enough money that when I will look for women and settle and have kids of my own. most of the women I have been with had kids, but even though I will sometimes try but will never work.
Things were to fall apart in the year 2018 after I lost a big contract due to failing to deliver on time. That mess my company reputation a lot, all doors were closed everywhere I tried to apply for tenders even people I have been with for all these years told me very well that, there's nothing they could do to help me as everything was on the system .even trying to apply for small jobs everything was declined. Slowly I could see my whole life crashing down. I started to lose everything because there was no income. I was under a lot of pressure, then depression hit me so hard I turned to alcohol something I have never touched in my life. I had a car accident almost lost my life. I was in the hospital for over 3 months. I came out of the hospital I had to go back home as all my asset was repossessed. I was officially bankrupt, everything I have built all the years was gonna include my reputation. All my business partners never wanted to be assorted with me anymore. my mother was my only support structure she's the only person who gave me hope. I tried to take my own life but I failed.
I had to do my cv so to apply for jobs to be able to get something as I was so becoming too much for my mother as she is a single parent and still had to take care of my 4 other brothers and sisters. when I went to drop off my CVS, someone I have done business with in the past recognized me. He invited me over to his office for coffee just to catch up. since we have not seen each other for over 5 years. he asked me about my business how it going. I was so embarrassed at first and wanted to lie but I just broke down in front of him I couldn't hold my tears. I explained everything that has happened. He was also very emotional about my story. He told me he has also been in my shoes before. He knows very well how I was feeling. He told me about a Mama Thando who took him out of his mess. He told me he has never shared what he told me with anyone before. But he could see I was beyond desperate. He called the Mama Thando right in front of me put him on the loudspeaker he introduced me as his brother. Before he could explain the reason for his call. Mama Thando told me exactly what was happening to me. He couldn't go into details with everything over the phone so he arranged an appointment for us to meet him. He's a very busy person but he made a plan for me as he saw my story was beyond terrible. I was beyond broke so my friend offered to take me. We meet Mama Thando on a Monday but by that same week after, I already had some offers in the pipeline. at first, I thought it was a joke as I became scared. I thought it will also need sacrifices I have heard lots of stories before. I was my friend if this process will never need me to sacrifice anything. My friend even laughed at me. he told me this Mama Thando is not those people, I was shocked because everything happened so fast without him needing lots of things from me. This professor even told me the reason for all my loss and why I could not have a stable woman. Everything lead back to my childhood what my stepmothers had done to me. Mama Thando dealt with the root of my problem first. the rest was history. It was like I was in a movie. In two months I restored back everything I have lost even more. In my 11 years in business, I had never received a tender of over 16 million. but after meeting with Papa Isma the first tender I got was over 27 million I could not I was beyond shocked. Till today I don't have enough words to thank the Mama Thando . I got a new house recently got married as well currently my wife is pregnant with my very first baby ever. My mother at first didn't want to, believe me, she thought I did dark things until I introduced her to this Mama Thando . She was in tears when she finally met him and saw he was a humble and genuine man. Till today Mama Thando is still part of our family and we will never look back.
