I went to school at mission schools where we were trained to be self reliant and disciplined in life. I took things the way they came and that way I managed to complete my high school and joined a technical teacher training college. I was a teacher for more than ten years before deciding to be on my own.
I can say that I have been blessed because all of my three children have gone through the university and are working.
I love to help the less fortunate in life so that they can have something that they are doing to change their lives for the better.
I own a metal workshop where I make wrought iron gates, doors, grills and windows which are in great demand due to the construction work going on around my place. I may say that I trained as young boy to do welding and motor vehicle mechanics but I saw that there is less hassle in welding. The business has grown and now I have started a hardware shop for selling the materials that are needed for welding. My customers are the welders who near my location.
I have started repairing angle grinders and arc welding machines which are giving me an extra income.
I would like to buy assorted materials for my workshop and the hardware but since I had a strong desire to join the Zidisha.org family I have made the sacrifice to pay for my membership and loan deposit. As much as I want this loan to help me grow my business I want to bring all the borrowers who I was their trustee with Kiva Zip, to Zidisha.org. This is a platform that can help us improve our lives
