About Me

I am Richard Matundura was born in Nyanza province in Kisii County .I was raised by my parents although now Iam orphan. I went through primary Education and passed to go to Secondary despite the posed challenge of school fees. My parents were peasant farmers and depended on farming and menial jobs thus denying me the chance to college or professional training instead I started working as a shamba boy to help support my parents .I managed to get money to join college through my little saving but by the time i was clearing, i had arrears so I didn't get my certificate. I had to hustle to pay my arrears and obtained my certificate. I also paid my computer studies, diploma and now doing my master degree in Kisii university
