My name is Ali Sulubu Ndurya am a resident of mtwapa and a businessman inn mtwapa as well. Am a family man with three children, my first child is a girl and she is twelve years old the second is a boy and he is nine years old the third is a girl and she is seven years old. i lve with my family here in mtwapa.I did not have the chance of finishing my education i only ended in class seven. this was because of the poverty situation in my family.So with my little education getting a reasonable job was a dream to me i only got the casual and low paying job that could not susyain my family upkeep. i had to turn into business as a way to earn a decent living. I started a charcoal and firewood business. i decided to do this business because i saw the need for such services in my area.Its a good business and i get an income of ksh 20,000per month. With what i get in this business i buy food for my family pay rent and school fees as well.
I do a charcoal and firewood business here in mtwapa,. This business here does best because of the high live cost , and considering that people living here are middle earners making it hard for the them to afford the high prices of cooking gas and kerosine. This business here is profitable and i get an income of ksh 20,000, with this amount i use ksh 5,000 paying school fees, ksh 2,000 paying rent and ksh 5,000 buying food for the family. So in a month i save ksh 8,000. With this amount of savings i can use to repay my loan.
Hello,am so happy that after long am now accepted in posting a loan application. My thanks to the entire zidisha team for the hard work you are doing in helping people with their businesses.
