About Me
I was born on 26th April 1969, I am the oldest of five boys. I grew up near Kalukanya boarding school of Mufulira township in an area now known as Kakoyo Kawama.
During my teen years, we lived on a farm where I enjoyed caring for animals and I serious considered becoming a farmer. From my childhood onwards, I took a stand for Jehovah. For example, once when I was 8 my father opposed the Truth and didn't allow me to study or tell us to congregate meetings.
I still wonderd what to do after I graduated from high school. Although I shared in the field service every weekend, I didn't enjoy the ministry and couldn't see myself as a pioneer.
Meanwhile, my unbelieving father and uncle Bupe where encouraging me to work full time for a certain leading insurance company, In Ndola and my uncle had a position prominent there so I accepted the Job.
As time goes by I developed interest in catering because even at my secondary school I use to study food nutrition and home economics so decided to pursue food production and it wasn't easy for me because on the other side I was working then at the same time going to a catering school, but thank God I completed my course with flying colors.

Project Proposal
Looking at my first credit limit, I am here by applying for a loan with a plan of purchasing a generator. Here in Zambia there is load shedding going on so we find it difficult to cater a huge number of customers because we use electrified equipments meaning if they is no power it means no holders will be taken from the kitchen, moreso I have come to a releasation that buying a generator will definitely help me and make it easier for my business to be operating as usual.
