@brighter, the best sacco is the one that goes for the kill when a defaulter gets inspired-IRRESPECTIVE OF REASON. This is to protect contributions and hence dividends.
Tel calls dont help coz i assume demand notes were sent to both defaulter and guarantor. Before waging war arm yourself with your bylaws be ready to defend your rights upto the tribunal and finally, maybe to the court.
Diplomacy may get u further than shouts of Haki yetu! There is a fellow like u in one case who still lost her shares , paid the court fees, deposited the interest in the counterclaim, and of course her advocate smiled for 2 years of mentions and hearings.
Get the calculator and relevant details and shoot from the hip if need be.
