About Me

My names are Boniface kigotho am a member of a family of six and i live in limuru town and working for a Chinese company in Nairobi as a crane operator.
I love my family and my parents Mr and Mrs kigotho are both farmers.
I went to N gong technical college for a course in plant operation after i joined Kenya polytechnic for attachment then i was sent to Kenya pipe line to work as a forklift operator,
Luckily when the Chinese came to build roads in Kenya i secured employment with china Wu yi company to work as a crane operator,
My salary was low at the beginning but as i gained more experience it raise.
i want to get to the best levels and support my young brothers and sisters to study and become what they want in their life.
life is not that easy in my country due to unstable economy, raising needs and expensive cost of living so hard work is no option to me.
My country is a beautiful place from cool wether wild animals and ofcose fredome of movement.

My Business

Am a plant operator at china wuyi company in Nairobi currently undergoing road constructions in Kenya.
Am based at the main office and my work is loading and off loading heavy eguipments at the receive point when they get to the main site from Mombasa port.
Am paid 300 Us d which i use to support my family needs and education for my brothers.
i save 60 US D monthly.
i love this job because i have passion for machines i can drive dig with a shovel drive heavy trucks and even race in a rally.
after receiving 300 us d i get deducted 20 us d for hospital contribution and tax.

Loan Proposal

Lenders this amount will be enough for me to start a poultry farming business back at home, sometimes i have fears of what if i lose my job what will i be doing before i get another job, For this reason me and my wife decided that if i get the next loan we are going to construct and and start a small poultry farm.
Granted the loan of amount 300 us dollars i will use it to do the following ;
Buy 10 poles at 3 us dollars each this will sum up to 30 us dollars,
10 iron sheets at 7 us dollars each sum up-to 70 us dollars,
10 pieces of chicken wire mesh at 5 us dollars each sum up-to 50 us dollars,
chicken feeding troughs at 50 us dollars,
1 bag 100 k gs of starters mash chick food at 40 us dollars,
10 small layers chicks at 30 us dollars,
nails and inches at 10 us dollars.
the remaining 10 us dollar will be for transportation of materials to my home.
With this project my wife will be taking care of the project as i go to work and for the six months before the chicks are ready to produce eggs for sell i will be paying the loan from my salary as i usually do.

    Things are tough at the moment, my dear lenders. I hope I will make it through my course and pay my loan, but for now am totally out of funds. Sorry for the reduction and thank you for everything you have done.

      You have been paying well so far; always make some payment even when you don't have everything. I hope your course is going well.
