About Me
I was born in Masanga Yiro in Siaya County in 1991. I joined class one in the year 1997 and later in 2005 I sat for my National examination and awarded 8years course certificate.I raised money and joined a driving school where I was given a driving license in 2010.
Thanks to Nairobi Christian Outreach center in Kibera, they are the one who received me and allowed me to train how to play a keyboard. I volunteered to work for Nairobi COC Academy and in reward they paid for my computer packages course in 2012. In 2013 I was employed as Administrator in Nairobi COC Academy and also a computer trainer where I am till today.
While in Primary, I had a passion for music so I started training to be a gospel artist and I recorded my first song in 2013, the song called “Guza roho yangu’ a mixture of three languages that is English , Swahili and my native language “Luo”. I later in 2014 recorded another two gospel hip hop songs called, Draw near to God and “Sina Deni”. You can get the song by just searching my stage name called “Mosh G’ in google and you will be directed to the links containing the songs. Don’t just view them, download them and help promote gospel artist.
Music industry has been good and it enables me to partner with my brother and we started a boutique shop where we sell mitumba clothes at Toi market in Kibera. I am praying to God to direct me to a good wife. My hobby is playing keyboard, reading and travelling.
My Business
I own a boutique shop where i sell clothes also I sell my Cds(songs) at affordable price.
As you know, clothes are in demand here in kibera even elsewhere. People needs to be clean everyday so they need new clothes also. About Cds, listening to new song is what people like, so i do record and sell. In starting up this businesses, you don't need to have a lot money, any amount can do so that is why I started the business. I do get not much but thank God for little I get. The profit I use for reinvestment in growing the business
Loan Proposal
If given the loan I will use $1000 to select new and attracting clothes at Gikomba market. I will sell them each at a price that will make sure I get a good profit. My customers will benefit because they will get a new in the market clothes. I believe i will get an increment of 25% from 10% I usually got
