About Me

My Name is Martin Onyango Siguda, Kenyan citizen by birth. Following the death of my father leaving me at the age of 5years, I grew in the hands of single parenthood which saw me through to my secondary education (High School). In the family of 8, I was the 5th born.
It was immediately after high school that it was difficult to continue with my tertiary education when I started looking for job opportunities in an effort to become self-reliant and even be able to support my other siblings. Through this, I initiated a community based organization with the main focus on environmental management in enhancing social development. This was motivated by the dilapidated status of the environment and the high rate of environmental depletion by increased level of rural-urban migration. Through the CBO activities, partnerships saw me join one of the local Universities to pursue Community Health and Development. Unfortunately this went only to the diploma level and for quite a while now the desire to accomplish my career goal has not been accomplished.
It was also through the partnerships that I got exposed to work with various Civil Society Organizations. My experience in working with the civil society organizations has so far further exposed me to, increasing demand of services which in a greater extent prompted me into becoming an entrepreneur. In the service industry as an entrepreneur, I noticed a lot of opportunities in Design work, printing and supply of stationery. In this regard, I have registered my business and currently I have an operational office where offer the services to our clients. Fortunate/unfortunately enough, considering the short time kind of contracts with the civil society organizations I wasn’t able to accumulate sufficient capital base for the business hence I started with the little I had since I was being driven by the passion of filling the gap which I noticed was widening with the devolution process which is on course in our country. In my business, we are a beneficiary of Zidisha Loan which really so us improve in our service delivery and we strongly believe that the initiated partnership with Zidisha should be built upon and has the potential of taking us to greater heights in business. Much thanks to Zidisha team.
