I am Oumarou Diabaté, I live in Conakry where I grew up with my parents. In 1994 I began my first class in my primary school career, and I took the entrance exam for middle school in 2001. I went to the middle and high schools at Matam from 2002 to 2009 before getting accepted to René Levesque University in Conakry where I did a three-year sociology degree.
During the course of my education I met many difficulties, but thanks to the moral support of my parents and good colleagues I managed to overcome them. After college I stayed proactive in managing my own affairs by reselling secondhand clothes in the big market of Madina. When it comes to hobbies, I like to read, play soccer and listen to music to relax.
I lead a business that is based on the sale of secondhand clothes at the big Madina market in Conakry; considering the lack of funds, three of us contribute to buy a big lot of secondhand clothes at around 900,000 Guinea francs and resell them, sharing the profits.
The sale of one lot lasts sometimes 2 days, a maximum of 3, and we earn between 350,000 and 400,000 francs on one lot and we resell 2 lots per week, so the profit margin varies between 500 and 600,000 guinean francs per month. The profits allow me to cover my small needs and pay my rent of 100,000 GF per moth. This is why I wish for financial support to really earn more profits and ensure my regular autonomy.
Quand je recevrai mon prêt j'ajouterai sur mon capital initial pour acheter deux (2) balles de friperie d’habiles divers à 1800000GNF afin de réalisé un important bénéfice.
Ce bénéfice me permettra de subvenir a mes besoins quotidien et contribuer a certains besoins de mes parents. Etan seul la vente d'une balle pourra duré jusqu’à cinq (5) jours et cela m'aidera a avoir 350000GNF par semaine a peu prés 1400000GNF par mois.
