About Me

Hi, am Lameck Akama. I was born in a humble family hear in Keroka Gusii land. I went to Amabuko primary school, a public primary school near my home hear. After primary school I qualified and joined high school but my studies were cut short due to lack of funds. I then started working as a labourer for a construction company. I have since worked untill I have learnt the art of building and construction. I saved the money I got from my work and started building my own rental houses. It is hard for a man here to survive without a good job but am ggreatfull to God I made it. My first born son wants to be an Engineer and also talks about pastoring. My young daughter dreams of becoming a doctor. I spend my leisure time watching football.

My Business

I am building rental houses since the demand for houses hear in Keroka is increasing with the growth of the town. This will meet the peoples demand for proper housing. I chose this kind of business because of my knowledge and exposure to the building and construction industry. The cost of building is relatively high but I do it in bits so that the ones am done with are occupied to generate income for continuing with the construction. I use the profits to pay for my childrens school fee and to run my house budget. I am also left with some little which I re-invest in my project.

Loan Proposal

I will use this money to continue buying more equipment for my construction company. This will help me because the number of employees has so far increased. This will give me a 65% profit increase. Thank you in advance for the loan.
