Born and raised from a poor family along the shores of lake Victoria, agribusiness was my passion though the environment favoured clergymanship. I managed to graduate from Kenyatta university in the year 2015 with a degree in Analytical chemistry with management.
I followed my passion along side my career and established a small poultry farm, an Mpesa agent shop and a stall in town for fruits and vegetables.
my major source of income has always been from the Mpesa shop and the small poultry farm upcountry as I don't have any formal job.
I now want to expand my Mpesa shop into being an agent for three commercial banks; equity bank,KCB bank and cooperative bank.
I also have plans to expand the small poultry farm upcountry into a commercial venture by upgrading the number of hens from 1000 to 10,000.
In all these, the major challenge is finance.
It's my humble request to secure a loan from the great Zidisha family to realize my dreams in agribusiness.
I plan to attend training sessions on poultry farming some of which are charged. This is to acquire vast knowledge on egg incubation and best poultry practices.
The knowledge experienced is to be shared with other youths to help them also start similar projects in order to improve their livelyhoods.
