About Me
I was an orphan and grew in hardship life. My family members composed from my father, my mother, and my brother died in 21 years war in South Sudan. I am the last born in the family of four children, my two sibling a boy and a girl died in their infant ages. My elder brother who was the first born helped me before he died in eduction. But after his death I struggled in my own until I manage to have my FORM FOUR CERTIFICATE. In the course of this strife I became a Christian and I was born again. My Christianity life led me to be a preacher and served the Lord since my converting to Christianity. I was converted in 1975 and in 1980 I became officially preacher up-to-date. But because of the war I find myself lonely without relatives and feel insecurity. Thus, I hit the road run nowhere and I found my self a refugee in Northern Kenya particularly in Loitotok or Lokichokio in Kakuma camp. I came to Nairobi seeking education and landed in theological college where I earned Diploma, Degree, and certificates related to theology in leadership and counseling. Moreover I find some peace in my life because the church I joined helped to exercise my preaching for the Lord's work. God also has given me more graceful life by having a wife from Kenya from Meru District. Thus, I would like my children to be well decent in their life as we are working very hard to improve our lives. The best thing I like most in luxury time is reading books, watching decent movies. I hope, I believe as my faith directed me to live a Godly life with my family and community
My Business
My work connected to my wife's professional. She is a professional tailor. But my professional work are marketing all kind of commodities that I developed during my early education struggle. The other professionalism that I currently practice is theology and an experienced teacher in English, and Arabic language. Thus, our business today after married depend on one place practice because of my wife's machine. Currently we have a machine boosted by consumable items. This business serving the demand of the common person in their daily bases needs. We used to practice this businesses for the last four year in South Sudan with my wife. I was working National Legislative Assembly of South Sudan and my wife runs the business in the day time while Am at work and at evening I came to help until we closed to go home. The Equity of South Sudan has the upper hand by giving us some loan to open the business. Therefore, here in Kenya we are doing the same with the little capital we came with from South Sudan and we manage to run this small business in order to meet the need of our children's education, paying the rent, improving our home status, covering health matter, supporting our church, any necessary contribution and most reinvesting more much generating income.
Loan Proposal
In my first loan I boosted my family business with it that stabilized our business very well. Also when my wife joined we were able to expands the business which we combined tailoring and some consumable items. My wife working in tailoring and I assisted her in selling the other things in shop. Therefore; in my second loan I thought to join one of the Kenyan Universities and I joined Kenya Methodist University early this year as first year student in a faculty of theology. The second loan helped me to start the study in the mentioned university and now am about to complete the first year period. Thus; I am posting this loan also to meet my financial obligation to sustain my studies as followings:
1. School fee US$ 150
2. Transport US$ 012
3. Exam fee US$ 020
4. Miscellaneous US$ 020
Total US$ 202
I hope your generous support is a step towards my status development.
Thanks in advance for your generous support to my obligation needs.
