About Me

I was born on 14th May 1984 in Bungoma, Kenya and attended school at Siloba primary, Kibabii High and Mosoriot Teachers College. I come from a poor family so raising school fees was hectic and I was forced to sometimes drop out of school to go and do menial work in sugarcane plantations to get school fees. However, I soldiered on till I completed my college education. After college I didn't get a job. I sold sugarcane then started a Motorcycle repair shop. I enjoy the Bukusu circumcision culture where boys are smeared with mud before they are circumcised. It's fantastic. I have one wife who runs a hair saloon and one child who is in class 4. He wants to be a pilot in future. I am a football fan. During my free time, l like watching English Premier League, especially if Manchester United, Manchester City, Arsenal and Chelsea are playing.

My Business

I run a Motorbike Repair Shop i.e. l sell spare parts used to repair broken motor bikes and also repair them myself. Most people here own Motorbikes. I also have a Hair Saloon and phone charging which is managed by my wife. In future, if Almighty God wishes, am planning to start a Motorcycle Shop. Thank you.

Loan Proposal

I will buy motor bike spare parts to sell in my shop. 1. Tyres; each at an average of 4 to 5 US Dollars to enable me buy more items in my shop sothat l can take higher amounts of loans in future. My profit will definitely increase by averagely 2 US Dollars. I will be able to start more business in other towns.
