About Me
My name is Samuel Njoroge Ihugo, I was born in year 1978 in the area called Kamiruri in Bahati area near Muthaiti Primary School. I went to our lady of mercy of primary school. Then after primary school i started a small business of charging batteries and barber shop.After charging the batteries for sometimes the place became unsave for keeping the batteries so i stop charging but i continued with the work of a barber, up to now. I am married with children.
I come from a place called Kamiruri in Bahati. As you travel from Nakuru along Nakuru/Nyahururu road you reach a centre called Maili Kumi you do not branch , you continue with road that goes to Solai before you reach the police station after passing Muthaiti Primary School you branch to your right then walk for about 600m from the main road you ask for walimuru’s home plot no. 988. The area is a very good place and very productive when it comes to farming.so those who do farming business do very well because of the favourable climate.
My Business
I do mixed farming where I grow different types of crops like maize beans, peas, tomatoes, potatoes, vegetables e.t.c. I sell the produce to the business men around the area and to others who come from afar. I also keep layers chicken for eggs which I sell to neighbouring town Nakuru. Apart from farming business I operate a barber shop at Maili Kumi Centre that is where I work all day and my family takes care of the farming business. I get about 200000 per year from crop farming and from chickens I get 20000 per month and so it is about 240000 per year from the work of barber I get about 150000 per month which is about 180000 per year so the total annual income is about 620000. I use the amount to continue the business, for my family up keep and also paying for my month bills.
