About Me

Thanks.
I am a young, energetic middle man in a serious self employed business. Throughout my young age, having been born and brought up, i was taken to school just like any other child. Having lived in a rural set up lifestyle. I am well conversant with all the challenges one faces in life. As a first born and the only child of my parents, I was taken to school where I went through primary and secondary school and later joined a university. I graduated with a degree in business management. Effort of seeking for a job in any organization was with little effort. I stayed home while helping my parents with domestic activities. My mother has been a civil servant staff though she has been very helpful to me. I started keeping a few chickens in our compound and this kept me busy. While doing the chicken activities, it dawned on me that it is indeed a full business I can engage myself in. A business that started as a killing time activities started generating money when I started selling chickens and eggs to the neighbors.My mother supported me to buy more chicks and there I am, it is a business that pays for my bills and meet all my expenses. Thank to my mother who supported me that time. This is how I came to start my own business and overcame the hardship of being jobless.
The unique thing about the place I live is that community embraces one another through helping the needy and keeping security. I would like my children to be well educated and get skills to be entrepreneurs and business people. My unique hobby is helping the needy and involving in a communal works or activities. I also love watching football.
