About Me

I am married with two children. I was born in a village and raised by my mom.my dad passed on when I was still young. I went to Rabi primary school and Rabi secondary school.After completing my secondary education I joined Busia Polytechnic where took certificate in general agriculture.
I got a job with an NGO as extension officer for 1 year and the contract ended due to lack of funds . i tried getting another job but was unlucky as I didn't find any. I started keeping poultry .I started with 10 chicken and two cocks and they have since increased to 150. I also do farming and always feed my chicken on kales as source of greens. My mixed farm give me decent living and I am happy to be a farmer.
my children are quite to young,they are aged three and one.
i love story telling,swimming,dancing singing and socializing. I am a good dancer and always entertain guests in occasions .

My Business

I am a mixed farmer and produce chicken for meat and eggs. I also have a farm where I grow vegetables for sale . the demand for indigenous chicken and vegetables is very high. I feed my chicken on greens and home formulated feeds and use the manure in my farm.Its some form of mutual relationship.
I choose farming because I had worked as an extension officer and had experiencing in livestock production and crop protection.
I spend $100 on feeds and immunization and $80 on pestcides for vegetables. my total revenues is $400 on average.
I use my profits in farm expansion ,taking care of my bills and taking care of my parents.

Loan Proposal

I am in the process of constructing a poultry house to host 600 birds.I am requesting for $100 to help me buy 10 iron sheets required. I have already bought bricks and other materials required . I would really appreciate you for the loan.thank you in advance.

    Hi Ezakiel. I agree with Wendy. Better to communicate and have lower payments. Blessings and peace to you.

    Can you get in touch with Zidisha to reduce your payments to a more manageable level? That is better than letting yourself get behind with your payments, which can make it harder to get future loans.
    God bless you,
    Wendy

    Hello Ezakiel. If you're struggling to manage your repayments, please contact the Zidisha team and ask them to reschedule them to a lower amount over a longer period. You can then increase them again when your income is better.
    God bless you,
    Wendy
