About Me
I am married with three child I live in Nairobi Utawala and went to school at St Peter Mumias where passed my O- level Exams very well but I did not join the University because of lack of resources and I decided to start a business of retail shop in the year 2004 and with this business I have been able to take care of my family and pay for my Children School fees. I use the profit from my business to expand my business and build permanent building for my business so that it is more secure.
