About Me
i was born in Eldoret town, the place is commonly referred to as the City of champions by many Kenyans, i schooled at Kamagut primary school, Umoja secondary school and dropped out of school while if four three because my father refused to pay mu=y school fees, he was an alcoholic ad thus a lot of his money was invested into taking alcohol as opposed to taking care of his family.
I owned a bike that i used it to ferry myself to school each morning and back home, with the bike i decided top start transport business in town as i wanted to support my sibling in school since my father had failed to take care of them.
My Business
I offer transport services in Eldoret town using the bike that i own, i have been doing this for the past six years and God has always been faithful to me as i have managed to educate my siblings who are both in primary school and secondary school.
I chose these business as it was the only available opportunity for me to venture into at that particular time when i dropped out of school.
I have been using my profits mostly to educate my siblings, support my mother and father as well as support my transport business
