I went to school called Kangaita Primary School up class seven then to Kirimara Secondary School.after school I have worked with national cereals and produce board at a place called Kiganjo within Nyeri. Then I moved to Nyahururu and I trained as a carpenter, then from that time I went to Nairobi and I started a small business of selling vegetables then I engaged in woodworkshop in Ndadora.I took an electricity course in national industrial vacation training. In 1990 January I was employed in Jomokenyatta Secondary School as a laboratory assistant in 1992 I went for a laboratory technician course in Eldoret Polytechnic I studied for two years but I did finished diploma. In 1994 I started butchery at Maili Kumi Nakuru. In 1995 I went to Elburgorn where I was doing Radio Technician and casual jobs. In 1997 I was employed in Nakuru Industries where I worked as electrician now I am doing my own business.

I come from Maili Sita centre about 10km form Nakuru town along off Nakuru/Nyahururu road near Engoshura Cementry next to PCEA Kirathimo neighboring Beson Murage, ask Baba Martha Plot No. Bahati/Kabatini/1/8845 In our area the place is good for farming and other small business due to high population which live in the area also the area is very good for any business due to it strategic place of being the nakuru town.

My Business

I work as motor rewinder and service of electrical appliances e.g welding machine electrical posh mills and small scale farming where I grow crops like maize beans ,peas potatoes, vegetables e.t.c. I get about 15,000 per month which is a total of 180,000 per year I also get about 200,000 per year from farming. So the total income is about 350,000 per year. I use my income to cater for my family and help my parents. I am planning to expand my business in the side of farming by becoming a large scale farmer where I will rent large farm like five acres and above ,where I can get good harvest.

    My father have been ill and he had to transferred to from Nyeri to Nakuru where he was hospitalized.So i have been using all my finances to care for him that's why i was not able to repay my loan as was required.I actually used KES 38000 to clear his hospital bills,so this situation brought me down but i promise to start my repayment come January next year.

    Dear Lenders,

    my name is Roberta Zenere and I am a Kenya Country Liaison Intern at Zidisha. Within this role, I am coordinating the Zidisha's MPESA team, responsible for processing loan repayments and disbursements.

    Today, while reviewing our accounts, I noticed that the repayment of 8.46 USD (710 KES) posted on September, 16 in the repayment schedule of Mr Julius Wahome was entered by mistake. This means that, upon removal of the transaction, the amount that had been credited to your lender account will be reversed and will reduce your available balances accordingly.

    We are sorry for this inconvenience. Please, let us know if you have any questions.

    Thanks for your patience!

    Best regards,

    Roberta
    Zidisha Team
