I come from Mabusi Village in Tongaren Division. One can get there from any of the following main cities i.e Kitale, Eldoret or Bungoma. From Kitale one can either use Kitale - Eldoret route stopping at Matunda or look for Ndalu/ Tongaren Stage. From Matunda there are vehicles going direct to Tongaren mosty at Kona Mbaya Junction. From Tongaren there are motocycles commonly referred to as Bodaboda most of which go to Mabusi area and one in Mabusi ask for Doctor Ngutuku's Residence close to Masete. From Eldoret one uses the route of Eldoret - Kitale stopping at Matunda and proceed like mentioned above. From Bungoma, one goes to Webuye then to Misikhu where there are vehicles going direct to Tongaren. I did my Certificate of Secondary Education in 2003 attaining a grade of B (Plain). Due to lack of finance, I worked in Cyber cafes and Bookshops until 2008 when Joined Kenya Medical Training College in Eldoret doing a three year Dipoma Course in Medical Engineering until 2011. I did Internship in Uganda with Siemens and later on Joined my sister in Kakuma - Kenya doing data entry with NGO. I later on opened up a business in Kakuma dealing with Cyber Cafe, Computer and accessories repair and did some repairs at Kakuma Mission Hospital. The demand for Phones and Accessories repair was very high and i started doing it as well. Mobile phones repair and accessories is what i am doing most recently.
My business is a general Engineering service offering Cyber cafe services, Computer and accessories repair and All mobiles Flashing, Repair and accessories. I have done this business for more than four years now i would like to add some Mobile phones repair equipment with the Loan I'm requesting. I wish to buy a Rework Station Machine and a few Phones Screens and accessories with the money to boost my business since the demand for phones repair is very high here and yet there are few trusted technicians
I will purchase and additional EX-UK Desktop CPU at 50 USD. A Screen Separating Machine for Mobile Phone Repair at 40 USD. I Will also buy 120 Replacement Touch Screens at 25 USD each and 120 Replacement LCD Screens at 25 USD each. I will be able to raise around 130 UDS from each Replacement Touch Screen and LCD Screen. That is a total of about 31,200 USD from Touch and LCD replacement.
