After the death of my father life become very hard as my mother could not afford our basic needs,luckly my aunt offered to educate me, I schooled up to secondary school,but did not have fees for college.
I joined my aunt in her workshop who trained me in dress making and design. After knowing the job I had to work for her for 6 months as I raised capital to start my own business, I family managed to raise $200 and added a loan of $200 from my youth group and started off my business.
