In my last project, I was able to establish buying and selling of palm oil from villages to the cities where it is difficult to get good palm oil. I started with little, buying to sale in the school environment and the surroundings since I was a student, I used the proceeds to pay my school fees and also maintain myself in school. I did this for 4 years and after graduation, I continued with the business and was able to get married. I have two boys today, ages 10 and 6 courtesy of Zidisha.
