About Me
Am from Kambi Mpya village in Lukhuna market(Bungoma -Kenya)
Am the second-born among my parents' children.
My first school was called Malala primary school and then Lukhuna RC secondary school.
while schooling, I was really very ambitious in life although I did not go past secondary school education due to lack of school fees.
In our days, Education was not free like today whereby children can access free education both at primary and secondary & tertiary levels.
But then education was of high quality such that secondary school level was enough. Class subjects were very few unlike today whereby children struggle to read a pile of books.
I used to run a my father's Restaurant when I was still a student.
it inspired me and I had to start same business when I married.
I was an avid reader and did a lot of research in books. This is still my hobby to date and internet is my friend.
Hardly an hour passes without me surfing internet.
My Business
I run a restaurant which fetches me good money on daily basis.
Though I spend much on buying food for my hotel, I make sure I balance the duo to ensure profit is realized.
I have hired five workers whom I pay weekly.
I offer services to my customers buy serving them with food and they pay for it in return.
I use cash collected to renovate home, pay school fees and feed my family
I also keep some as savings
Loan Proposal
This being a rainy season means in our region we plant our staple foods during the season. I would like to harvest my sugarcane in my small piece of land and thereafter plant maize .
Harvesting requires human labor and in my case 6 dollars. Ploughing require 10 dollars. Tractor ploughing is expensive so I will use oxen to plough. Please consider my plea and I promise to repay promptly
