About my life

During my education I came many challenges because I came from humble background.When I joined secondary school I used to go school once a while because of lack of school fees.My parents were struggling to get school fees for me but it was hard because they had no job,so they had to call for fundraiser which assisted me complete my secondary education and I perform well and joined University where I got sponsored from the government.

Another challenge I went through is that, after completing my education it was hard for me to secure job,I went to many companies searching for jobs but I didn't get because managers were requesting for money to get you job and I didn't have at that time.So I came hom and get married and decided to do farming and start saving some amount of money I got.After a while,we got our first born child.Later when my first child joined school I was not able to save more because I used some amount to pay school fees.

Business

The way I started my business is that because I had saved some amount of capital,I decided that I should have a business which should assist me to feed my family and pay school fees for my children.So since I had knowledge and skills for electrical engineering,I decided that I have to have my own business.I did a research to a place where I will do my business and I found a very good place on a town near Technical school.
