i was raised up by my uncle from the age of seven.i attended several primary schools due to lack of school fees bt later i made it to high school where i made it through three different schools. I grew up in a family of boys and i hard to be tough not to be given chores of a girl like cooking. After high school i struggled to get a job in the capital but wherever i asked for a job i was told am younger to be working. Finally i got a friend kept me in his electrical shop and from there i learned how operate it.
I ALSO YATAUGHT MYSELF HOW TO REPAIR CELL PHONES.Two years later i started a business with my litlittle savings.
Funny enuenough the people around here believe in witchcraft and discoraged me a lot but i trusted in God.
About my children am yet to know......
At my leisure time i love dismantling cell phones while listening to reggae music....
I sell electrical goods such as bulb, socket, conduit pipes. I also sell phone accessories and do mobile repair.
Due to high population, the demand is high making it More reliable Due to power outages in the area, electrical appliances blow anyhowly leading to a cycle of purchase
This kind of business is easy to operate because it doesn't need much varieties as compared to others like retail shop.
