Hello. My name is Vincent Banda, I stay in Chililabombwe in Kamenza eats. I was born on 12 June 1997, in chipata province where I grew up from and from there I went to Ndola and did mechanic engineering at NOTEC , after that I was able to shift in order to stay on my own in chililabombwe where I started doing hair business buying from kasumbalesa selling in chililabombwe.
