I had my elementary school at Zebilla methodist primary School in Zebilla. my father was facing a financial problem due to that I couldn’t continue my education school. I stopped schooling and went to help my Uncle in his guinea fowl poultry farming business at Techiman Tia, helping my uncle really enables me to become more skillful in poultry rearing and I worked with my uncle for couple of years, I was being paid every month and also I learnt how to manage poultry business, I decided to start my own guinea fowl poultry business in Zebilla with the money saved when I was working with uncle. Start my own guinea fowl poultry farming wasn’t easy for me although. I am a married man with two children and my dream is to work hard so that I can provide for family,support the needy,help my parents and I have a believe that with the help from my friends in zidsha it shall be well with me.
