I was brought up in a very poor family, my parents died when I was 16yrs. As the eldest in the family I had to step and fend for my younger ones. I started faming, since we are close to the lake it was easy to plant kale and tomatoes which helped me pay my fees and buy everything we needed. I also double up by selling daggaa. I like sports, but spend most of my spare time ferrying people over to the islands in my little boat. My son would like to be a pilot while my daughter wants to be a doctor

Daggaa,is in demand as it is used as human food and making animal feeds and fertilizers. I earn between 2000 to 3000 Kshs. Daily and share it in school fees and reinvesting my business. I choose this kind of business because there are few people doing it but is highly in demand and paying well. In transportation its also doing well since people travel alot between the island and mainland

I want to boost my business, buy more daggaa which costs 300 dollars. And after selling it I get a profit of a bout 400 and 420 dollars. This will help me buy more goods which earns more profit after sales.
