About Me

I am called Edwin Wafula, a luhya by tribe. I am 36, married with 2 kids both in nursery school. I am the first born in our family. We grew up in utter poverty with my mum since she was a single mother. Our tribe has a unique culture where after circumcision boys are not allowed to cook or do domestic work but because I was the first born I did. My Hobbies include: swimming, reading books, going to church and playing music. My kids are young but their dream is to become pilots. My level of Education is a bachelors degree in Education (B.ED).I tarmacked and lacked a job and I decided to go for driving school and bought a car for me to be a cab driver.This business I started after selling a piece of land that I inherited from my father
