About Me
my name is Zacharia, i am 25years old. i come from a family of 8. i spent most of childhood in Nairobi, Kariobangi estate and started schooling there. in 1996, my family relocated to the rural due to hard times we face in Nairobi.
i like football since childhood and continued to train even in the rural. the schools in rural were cheaper so i spent all time there in primary and secondary school.
i came back to town this time in Thika after school in 2008 and stayed with a friend. i never gave up to education, i started attending computer classes. i then joined a sports for development organization that was starting in this slum. likely enough, a friend from the organization helped join the university in the year 2013. he helped pay for first year before his job ended. I must say am greatful to Zidisha for loaning me money that helped in my last semester and i managed to graduate in December 2017.
My Business
