About Me

I was born and brought up in a village called Dwomo. I had my basic education there and continued my senior high school at Duayaw Nkwanta. Since I had a poor financial background, I could not continue with my education but rather resorted to hustling since I knew how to barber.
I hawked round in Accra barbering people. I was able to raise some amount of money and then established a barbering shop at Duayaw Nkwanta in a wooden structure (kiosk). I have been able to hire a storeroom and employed another worker.
The shop is at a very good and strategic place in that it is sited at a four junction where a lot of people pass. The place is very very busy so it makes people patronize the shop.
I wished I could be a teacher in life. Since I could not achieve this ambition, I always wish and pray that my children grow up and achieve this dream. I want them to attend school to the highest level of their capabilities. The children are treasures given to parents by God. So, I want my children to aspire in their endeavors. My children should go go go go go go go go go go go and go high. The sky should be their limit.
My best hobby is checkers. I enjoy playing it and does during my leisure hours. There are other games like soccer.

My Business

I barber and get paid for that. I barber not less than 30 people daily at 4 ghc per head. I am capable of paying off any loan which will be given to me. I also operate mobile money from all networks and I have employed people to help me. I believe getting the loan will help me as well as the people who work under me. I decided to go into it some years back and later used it to continue my bachelor of education degree. I have used this work to sustain myself and my family for all these while. I help students and other needy students at church. I am a Catholic and I have prompted my parish priest to draw my attention to brilliant but needy students. Some I give full payments of fees and others I give part depending on the circumstances. I have decided to support them in other for them to achieve academically without struggle like I went through.

Loan Proposal

the said amount will be used to purchase two barbering machines at the cost of $35,00. each of the barbering machine costs $17.50.
$5.00 of the money will be used to buy machine blades. the remaining $6.00 will be used to buy rubbing alcohol (aftershave), body covers, aprons, and combs.
these will help me serve my customers at a faster rate. it will also help me to employ the services of other people which will reduce unemployment in our community. my clients will also get the opportunity to leave my shop early to their businesses.
