Ivan MUHANGI

Ivan lost his mother when he was 10 years old and after three later his father died too. Ivan being the oldest child, was taken by his uncle and he is very grateful because his uncle sacrificed a lot to support him through education. He paid his school fees in both primary and secondary education up to Senior Four level. Unfortunately, at this point his uncle openly told him that he didn’t have enough funds to continue supporting him in school.

Ivan tried to join a local garage in Bombo to train, but with no money, he only lasted for only week until when the garage owner asked for the fee,

He then worked in delivery bread van working in the taxi as a conductor, but never gave up on his dream career of being a motor vehicle mechanic.

“I choose motor vehicle mechanics because it has been my passion since I was a little boy. There are also good employment opportunities for me as a mechanic, as there are many new garages starting-up too meet the market demand.”
