About Me

My name is John Muritu Mairura .i was born in a fair background and strong Christian family,my parents were at that time working,My parents were able to take me through Primary and Secondary Education and completed attaining a C plus after my Secondary Education.I later joined a computer course full package at Christ the King Computer College in Nakuru.By the time i was through with my College, my parents were both retired and financial hardship started to hit our family,I got a job as a casual labourer to the fallen Eveready Company.
I worked their for One and a Half years and during that time i hard saved some money which made me to establish my business.Here in Kabarak the land is so fertile and conducive for farming ,where the community here practice farming and also their are big investors who are investing in this area by putting up big Hotels and Resorts.From my parents experience i decided to own a business because on the business line one has a potential of climbing high unlike where my parents started experiencing financial hardship after employment.
During my earlier days as a kid i used to play video games where i got Computer related staffs ,and now i cannot re grate because now the business i do has a passion from it ,meeting new friends and exchanging new ideas is my greatest endavour.I am the last born of all the six siblings.
