My name is Edith Ambani, I was born in family of six, four boys and two girls in village called Musasa Ikolomani constituency Kakamega in Western Province. I Went to Musasa Primary school then joined Shiveye High School.After 4 years of my High School level; I stayed at home doing farming in our small Farm since my father did not have money to take me for higher studies. I did small scale farming where I could atleast earn an income to upkeep my self. I did this for about 3 years till when I learnt for the business (cyber Shop)am doing up to date from one of my Friend whom I visited and gave me the idea .
From there with my little savings, I opened the Cyber Café with atleast two Computers where am doing typing, browsing and other internet service, the business has an income of Kshs10, 000 a month. I chose this kind of business so as to fight ignorance amongst my people and have an informed community. The little I get here I used for paying school fees for my kids and also for my business and house rent. I intent to continue with this business, because in future I want to start a computer class, selling computer hardware and software and also computer maintenance.
My challenge is that after doing typing services to my customers most f them are in need of Printing and scanning which I don’t have the printers and and the scanners which is causing me to loose some of my customers. Given the Ioan, I will use it to buy Scanner, Printer and photocopier machine and also add two computers, which will enable me to bring back my customers who were gone to other places in search of these services.
