About Me

i was born in a family of eight children i being the second born. first of all i went to primary school near my home where by it was mud walled and had a mud floor. each week twice we had to carry cowdung to smear the classes in order to make them conducive for learning. i would then do this occasionally but deep inside me i used to dream of going far despite the challenges in school. we would carry water for preparing lunch for teacher and also carry firewood daily for the same purpose. i later managed to get into secondary school which had almost similar challenges to the primary school. i would trek every morning to school and every evening back home since i was a day scholar. during rainy seasons i would remove shoes and walk barefooted in order to save my shoes. i later went to college and did my secretarial course. the funniest thing about my land is that they are still in the culture of the ancient times where they believe education is not a necessity. i have 3 kids a boy and 2 girls. the boy is 11 years old and the girls are 6 &1 years old respectively. my son wishes to be a pilot in future. my hobby is listening to gospel preachings and gospel songs.

My Business

my passion is farming. I do maize planting and also poultry in the farm. I am employed and the income I get is not enough to aide me expand the farming. I have opted to do agriculture because many nations depend in agricultural products for living. I believe I will make a lot of cash that will aide my kids and family in future.

Loan Proposal

If I will be in a position to get this loan, I plan to purchase farm equipment like a jembe, slasher and panga to use in clearing the land before planting my seeds. It will greatly benefit me because I will be in a position to purchase the require farm tools and equipment and commence NY work as soon as possible in the farm. Farm produce greatly benefits human being and also animals.
