My names are Steve Biko Odero, I was born in Mombasa and raised there. I went to R. G Ngala primary school and did my High school in Sacred Heart High school Mombasa, life was not on my side since I lost my mother when I was about to sit for my exam(KCSE). When I finished the exams life became harder and I started working as a labourer in a construction site . I worked for 16 months while saving what I can and then started a kiosk which had challenges.Most of the time demand was too high but the stock was little but I struggle with it and I can see the benefits... what I need right now is to expand my business and see what it will bring. Thanks Zidisha team
