Akpedje is a married woman who sells used clothing in her local neighbourhood.
She buys her stock at the market and is asking for a loan to order bales of women's trousers, blouses and dresses.
Akpedje wants to make sales and earn a profit margin so as to cover her household's day-to-day living costs.
