I went to Kidiwa Primary in 1992 to the year 1999.And due to lack of School fees I stop there, I did go to high School.
Then latter After I was given some little money from my father and I started backing Mandazis (Bans) Which I am doing until now and it is a good wok, it is paying if a good capital is invested.
As I said before After drop out of School my father gave only 100KES and I started Backing Mandazi and started selling to my customers.
