About Me

My name is Touma Ibrahim. I was born in Bobo Dioulasso. I live in the Colma subdivision, which is Bobo Dioulasso's 11th district. Bobo Dioulasso is a peaceful city due to its pleasant weather and beautiful green vegetation. Located in the western part of Burkina Faso, the city of Sya (Bobo Dioulasso) as we like to call it, is also a cultural center. This city is where I spent all of my childhood and went to primary and secondary school. Due to financial reasons, I only went up to the middle school. Since then, , I found myself doing various activities with the sole purpose of providing for myself. I am single and without children at the moment. I am from a family of 17 children, as it is a polygamous family. My mother is the second wife of my father and I am her first born.

My Business

After doing various activities in order to become independent, I finally ventured in the mobile phone and accessory business 4 years ago. Thanks to profits I made, I was able to buy a computer as well as USB memory sticks. The computer allows me to download songs as well as video clips onto customers' phones, if they so desire. This service costs 200 to 300 francs; I also sell 1 GB to 8 GB USB drives depending on what a customer needs. Right next to this shop, I have a cash register for the sale of cigarettes that my brother manages, and I pay him 600 francs daily. I would like to benefit from your assistance in order to expand my business.

With this money, I intend to purchase high-end phones and some USB memory sticks. I will do good business, especially in this back-to-school period around the corner, followed by the end-of-year holidays.
