About Me

I was born in 1967 and started schooling in 1973-1979 when i sat my kenya primary certificate of education and scored 18 points at muthurwa primary in Nairobi. I was not satisfied and i repeated at essuza pimary in my rural home from 1980-1981 sat KCPE and scored 28 points and proceeded to Emusire high school from 1982-1985 i scored division 3 of 35 points. There was no money to further my A level exams.
From 1986-1989 these were my hardest days when i was employed as a casual laborer at ply sales in Nairobi.these was not my destiny so i joined college at St.john's Ambulance Organization of kenya. I used to work during the day and go to college during the night. Till i attained my certificates in Ambulance management, care for the sick and in first aid. this certificates enabled me to secure permanent an pensionable employment at Kenyatta University from 1990-currently. My hobbies reading novels and playing football.

My Business

Food staff and school equipments people around the market need food to eat students need school accessories. With the capital at hand it was the option coz we got some profit at the end of the day. Our typical costs Kshs.1200 for the stock per day and our revenue is Kshs.3000-6000 per week. we use our profits to;
1. pay my wife's debt
2. buy our daily food
3. pay our daily bus fare for our children and ourselves.
4. save whatever remains to reinvest in the business.

Project Proposal

After receiving the funds I will purchase items at a wholesale prices and sell them at a retail market price. I will purchase air time,maize, doughnuts and sugar. Of which I propose to make a profit of Kenya shillings one thousand,four hundred.
I also propose to meet my weekly payments from the interest.
